Thirteen chilling short stories to keep you up at night--but only if you dare. You never know what' s out to get you. Though you might think you' re safe from monsters and menaces, everyday objects can turn against you, too. A mysterious microwave. A threatening board game. A snowman that refuses to melt. Even your own heartbeat has its secrets. Thu-thump. Thu-thump. When you stop to listen, each beat sounds more menacing than the last. Master storyteller Josh Allen brings thirteen nightmare scenarios to life in this page-turning collection that' s perfect for budding horror junkies. In his wondrous world, danger waits behind every doorway . . . even in the most ordinary places. Eerie illustrations by award-winning artist Sarah Coleman accompany the stories, packaged in a stunning hardcover edition complete with glow-in-the-dark jacket. Readers will sleep with one eye open!
Twisty, terrifying, and oh-so fun! Just when you think you' re safe, Josh Allen brings on the scares. From monstrous microwaves to carnivorous pillows, you' ll never look at life the same way again. --Kim Ventrella, author of The Secret Life of Sam An excellent offering for young people looking for real scares that don' t condescend to them or pander to adult anxieties about what might be ' too scary. ' This book will fly off the shelves. --Kirkus Reviews
