Jack and Annie are off on a new adventure.  This time the destination is 1915 New Orleans.  This the height of the jazz movement and it is an exciting time to be a musician.  But Jack and Annie have arrived on All Saint's Day.  The evening is the scariest time of the year!  Their mission is to get Louis Armstrong playing the music that will make him famous.  Unfortunately, Louis doesn't seem all that interested in doing that.  Will our heroes be able to team up with some ghosts to get Louis playing?
