Five Nights at Freddy's fans won't want to miss this pulse-pounding
collection of three novella-length tales that will keep even the
bravest FNAF player up at night... Act in haste, repent at
leisure... After losing his friend in a terrible accident, Andrew
can't spend his money fast enough on a happy companion guaranteed
to keep his friend's memory alive. Mott quickly flushes his
brother's creepy new pets, but the creatures have other plans.
Eager to put her classmates in their place, Homecoming Queen
Jessica doesn't stop to double-check her homework ... reprogramming
a defunct animatronic. In this tenth volume, Five Nights at
Freddy's creator Scott Cawthon spins three sinister novella-length
stories from different corners of his series' canon. Readers
beware: this collection of terrifying tales is enough to unsettle
even the most hardened Five Nights at Freddy's fans. Perfect for
video game fans and fans of horror. If you enjoy the FNAF series,

Gerrie Radlof se gewilde Oloff die Seerowerreeks is oorspronklik
tussen 1957 en 1961 uitgegee en het daarna reeds vier uitgawes
beleef. Die verhale, wat in die 1740's afspeel aan die Kaap de
Goede Hoop en die seewee daarom heen, is verwerk om aan te pas by
die moderne taalgebruik en aan te sluit by die hedendaagse tiener,
maar niks van die oorspronklike sjarme en spanning het in die
verwerking verlore gegaan nie. Ook geskik as leesstof vir Afrikaans
tweede taal vir ouer leerlinge.
When Adri is offered an all-expenses-paid trip to the exclusive
Solstice Festival, it feels like the graduation gift of a lifetime!
But when she arrives, she quickly realises it's not
Instagram-ready. There's no water, no food, and no security in
sight - which means there's no one to help when a dead body is
found on the beach. With connections to the festival planners, Adri
gets a front-row seat as everything devolves into chaos - and she's
in a prime position to put together the clues to who - or what - is
killing off the crowd one by one.
The email arrives Sunday night: Do exactly what I say, when I say it, or I will reveal your secret.
On Monday morning, seventh graders Owen, Gemma, Ally, and Todd, who have nothing in common and barely know each other, must work together and follow the instructions of an anonymous blackmailer. None of them want to go along with the blackmailer's strange instructions, but each of them have a secret they must protect at all costs.
Set during a single day of school, the students race against the clock to complete a unsettling list of tasks. They'll do whatever it takes to keep their secrets hidden . . . but when they discover what the blackmailer has in mind, they realize things may have just gone too far. Can they put a stop to the plan, or is it too late?
THE DEAD BOY WOULD NOT GO AWAY. Jean is on her way to Hawaii for a week of fun in the sun. But the vacation gets off to a gruesome start. The boy sitting beside her on the plane suddenly chokes and dies. Jean tries to push the incident out of her mind when she arrives on the island, but that's impossible. Part of the reason is because Mike keeps coming back to her in her dreams. Horrible dreams filled with cold blood. Two of Jean's friends are waiting for her in Hawaii -- Mandy and Michele. They have already made friends with two young men who teach scuba diving at the hotel -- Dave and Johnny. Jean and Johnny quickly become friends. But there are problems in paradise. Dave and Johnny have recently lost a partner in the ocean. No one knows how he died. No one can find his body. But then Jean finds Mike's body. It isn't where it's supposed to be, and it seems as if it's still got some life in it.
Pull back the curtain and enter a world where mystery and magic
take centre stage in a gloriously gothic adventure from Jenni
Spangler, illustrated by Chris Mould. Twelve-year-old Tig works at
Manchester's Theatre Royale, cleaning, selling tickets and doing
anything else that is asked of her by her tyrannical boss, Mr
Snell. Tig will do whatever it takes to get closer to her dream -
to become a Stage Manager and spend her days inventing new ways to
imagine and build the intricate machinery and props that bring the
exciting productions to life! But when a strange new act - a
talking machine - arrives at the Theatre Royale, it moves and
behaves in a way that Tig just can't work out. It's as though it's
alive somehow . . . And when the machine appears to be hiding a
dangerous secret, Tig must race against time to solve the mystery,
before everything and everyone she cares about is lost forever. A
Victorian adventure full of ghost, gadgets and shifty villains,
from the critically-acclaimed Jenni Spangler, who's debut The
Vanishing Trick, was selected as Waterstones Book of the Month.
