Synopsis for "The Ghost of Springdale High"
While trying to avoid playing ball with his classmates, who gang-tackle Robbie Baldwin, a skull and skeleton fall out of the wall. Robbie, sensing he is beginning to turn into the Masked Marvel, Speedball, he sneaks off before the police arrive.
As rumors begin to circulate the town, Robbie's parents are taken in for questioning in the murder of Alex Bow, a former boyfriend of Robbie's mother, Robbie goes to the school as Speedball and runs into another masked intruder looking for a stash. Speedball and the burglar have a quick confrontation and the burglar gets away.
Because Speedball was spotted at the school, rumors of the ghost of Alex Bow haunting the school begin to spread through the city.
Robbie decides to go back to the school the next night and check things out. This time his run in with the prowler ends differently.
