BOO! If you're looking for a good scare, whether it's October or any time of the year, then you've come to the right place. Angela Giroux, author of the #1 best selling series "Funny Things I Heard at the Bus Stop" now has created a book of stories so creepy and crawly that you will definitely want to leave the light on while reading them! Aimed at the 10-13 age range, this book has five stories of spookiness and horror, that include creepy old people, a harbor town with a dark secret, dopplegangers, graveyards, haunted houses, and a possessed doll. If you're a fan of the Goosebumps series of books and shows, then you will love these stories. One of Us - the story of a weekend stay at Grandma and Grandpa's house at Halloween. But something about them just...isn't...right. The Horror at Gill Harbor - a young boy moves to a coastal town and things get creepy almost immediately as he is determined to find out the dark secrets of the townsfolk. Sleep - a boy is trapped in his school after dark, but is he alone? And why does the clock never change time? A Haunting Dare - a group of friends dares one of their members to go up to an old abandoned house that has been empty for over forty years. Simple enough...unless you notice the red eyes staring at you from the neighboring graveyard. And what exactly IS that shadow near the front door? The Doll - a group of girls buys a small doll in exchange for some of their Halloween candy, but this doll is not ordinary. Not at all. Is it just their imagination, or is the doll responsible for the strange things happening that night? Perfect for the tween crowd, these stories will make you shiver and shriek with delight!
