The Skeleton Whisperer is an overdue library book that plays a key role in "Chapter 3: The Witch".
Role in the series[]
30 Years prior to the events of the episode, it was checked out by Matilda Pilqvist, and she hasn't returned it since. Kaisa is tasked with retrieving the book before the 30 years are up, or risk being send to the Void of No Return if she fails. Hilda and Frida help her navigate Matilda's maze. Once at Matilda's house, Matilda doesn't know where the book is, but Hilda deduces her familiar Cornelius ate it.

The title of the book, the high stakes of the episode, and the fact that Abigail of The Committee of Three described it as a "sensitive and potentially dangerous magical text" suggest that The Skeleton Whisperer is a powerful necromancy spellbook of some kind.
However, the cover of the book indicates that it is probably a romance novel.
