"The Birdman puts spells on people. We mustn't talk to him. We're not supposed to."

Gracie and Daniel have been warned to stay away from the mad Birdman- but the message in the sand tells them that the Birdman isn't what he seems.

Then they get lost in the fog and stranded on Samson Island- should they believe the Birdman's story that the island is cursed?
