Baltastæjja appeals to the creative imagination of the children, letting them feel the invisible and egging and the fear for the unknown. Baltastæjja is compiled of several ghost stories, in which it is told about church yards, skeletons and shaman powers.

The Southern Sami word Baltastæjja can be directly translated to Ghosts.
