Allie looked up and her eyes widened as she saw a transparent, floating man. What was that a ghost? But she had never seen a ghost at Hogwarts before..
She let out a little scream, which sounded more like a squeak, when she saw th mans head practically fall off.
"What happened to your head?" she asked curiously.
