GHOST IN THE GRAVEYARD (HIDE-AND-SEEK VARIATION)

"ANOTHER GAME SIMILAR TO HIDE-AND-SEEK IS 'GHOST IN THE GRAVEYARD.'
LIKE HIDE-AND-SEEK EVERYONE EXCEPT THE PERSON WHO IS IT WILL HIDE
AND THE ONE WHO IS 'IT' WILL SEARCH FOR THEM. IF HE/SHE CATCHES
SOMEONE, THAT PERSON IS THE 'GHOST'S' HELPER AND HELPS HIM/HER
TRY TO CATCH THE REST. AFTER EVERYONE HAS BEEN CAUGHT OR EVERY-
ONE HAS REACHED 'GOOL' (FREE SPOT), THE FIRST ONE WHO WAS
CAUGHT IS 'IT.'"
