She keeps the child's room exactly the same as when the girl was alive, rocking and singing to the cradle that holds the child's mummified remains...When she throws an annual Yuletide party for children from the local orphanage, she kidnaps one of the little girls who reminds her of her daughter. The little girl's brother comes to the rescue. But when the woman tries to keep him as well, it's a fight to the finish...Auntie Roo's finish!
