Plot

[edit]

A few days before Halloween, twelve-year-old friends Gilbert, Marshall and Amy accidentally revive an Egyptian mummy they discover in a neighbor's basement. They affectionately name him Harold and must rush to return him to his resting place before midnight on Halloween. Along the way, the team narrowly escapes a nefarious group of criminals intent on selling the mummy to the highest bidder. When Harold is captured, Marshall, Gilbert and Amy must band together to stand up to the criminals, face their fears, and rescue their new—but rather "ancient"—friend.[3]
