((What Anyas ghost is about for anyone interested in reading it. Its more like a comic, but neitherless...and great read Anya Borzakovskaya is an immigrant from Russia who lives in the United States, alongside her mother and brother, Sasha. Anya is unpopular at her New England private school, aside from her best friend Siobhan and fellow Russian immigrant Dima, who Anya avoids due to being too “fresh off the boat,” and wishes to join the popular kids, including Sean, the object of her affections, and Elizabeth, Sean’s girlfriend. Walking to school one day, Anya falls down a large hole in the forest, which contains a skeleton. The body’s ghost, a shy, homely girl soon appears and explains that she had fallen down the hole and died of thirst after breaking her neck ninety years ago, but is unable to move very far from her bones. Anya is rescued by a passerby, but the skeleton is not discovered. At school several days later, the ghost appears to her, as Anya had apparently put a small finger bone in her bag by accident while leaving the hole. Anya initially wants to put the bone back in the hole, but relents after the ghost helps Anya cheat on a biology test and spy on Sean. Later, the ghost reveals herself to be Emily Reilly, whose fiancée had died during World War I. Shortly thereafter, Emily’s parents were murdered, and Emily fell down an old well while escaping the killer. Anya promises to find Emily’s killer, while Emily agrees to help Anya fit in at school and win over Sean. However, Anya’s attempts to become popular ostracizes her from Siobhan, who dislikes Sean, and Emily becomes disinterested in discovering the murderer’s identity. Later, Anya goes to a party and discovers Sean habitually cheats on Elizabeth, who is only with him for the boost in social status. Anya leaves, leaving Emily, who believed the two were destined for each other, angry and confused. After this incident, Anya notices Emily is becoming more controlling of her than before, even straightening her hair and smoking cigarettes like Anya had. Anya decides to finally search for the killer and finds a newspaper article about Emily’s disappearance with Dima’s help. It is revealed that Emily had no fiancée, and had in fact murdered a young couple in their home after the man rejected her, and then died running from the authorities. When Anya returns home, she discovers the finger bone to be missing, and that Emily is capable of moving solid objects, implying she had put the bone in the bag in the first place. Emily begins threatening Anya’s family in order to make Anya stop resisting her manipulations, even causing Anya’s mother to fall down a flight of stairs. After Emily appears before Sasha, he reveals to Anya he had found the bone earlier and put it with his “dinosaur bone” collection. Anya retrieves the bone and runs to the pit, pursued by Emily. After Anya drops the bone into the hole, Emily manages to possess her skeleton and climbs out of the pit. Anya convinces Emily of the futility of her situation, causing the tearful ghost to dissipate into the air, implying that Emily is free to the afterlife, and the skeleton falls into the pit again. Much later, Anya convinces her school to fill up the hole and rekindles her friendship with Siobhan.))
