House of Wonders

Holly tries to write about her great aunt who was a madam in Alaska but soon realizes that all she knows about Myrta Jane Wonders are some old family stories

She employs a Ouija board to summon the long dead madam, who proceeds to set her niece straight about the afterlife before helping with the book

Myrta returns with her ex husband, reputedly a gangster, and two women who allegedly worked at Myrta's House of Wonders. Problems arise when these visitors do not conform to Holly's expectations

House of Wonders provides a hilarious look at the evolution of family stories and a unique, uplifting view of the next life
