Jake and the other finalists in a writing competition have been invited to a stately house for a tour like no other. As their guide leads them through grand rooms, hidden nooks and magnificent grounds, they hear the stories of seven ghosts who haunt the halls. But strange shapes and shadows follow Jake as he journeys through the house and with each tale that Jake hears, he begins to feel more uneasy. All is not as it seems and soon Jake will discover that something is very, very wrong ... Old ghosts are stirred-up for Halloween in this spine-tingling, multi-narrative horror. Particularly suitable for struggling, reluctant and dyslexic readers aged 8+
Leopold se wêreld stort in duie wanneer sy familie hul rykdom verloor. Hy sluit by
’n togryer aan op pad na die diamantvelde om sy fortuin te soek. Sara, vermom
as ’n touleier, reis saam op soek na die merk van haar voormense. Maar wanneer
hulle by die geheimsinnige tolhuis in Ceres gestrand raak, kom hulle ’n donker
wese in die berge tee en ontdek dat hulle nog altyd bestem is om die skrikbewind
van die Verdwaalding stop te sit . . .
When the body of local legend Peter "Stinky Pete" Weldon is
found in the middle of the night on the Dell Road bridge, no one in
the small town of Billins, Illinois, is surprised that their local
mystery girl is at the crime scene. The only problem? Elizabeth
Finney has been dead for more than forty years.
Jessica Lyons has been having strange dreams filled with bridges
and ghosts. When she learns that Stinky Pete was her father, she
knows she has to return to her birthplace to face the legends,
cryptic history, and restless spirits of both the town and her own
family.
Joining Jessica in a paranormal quest for the truth is "Chicago
Tribune" freelance writer Connie Danci, along with a motley crew of
unlikely allies. Together, they take on every obstacle, confront
every enemy-living and dead-and feel every shiver up their spines.
They forge unexpected bonds and make unimaginable discoveries about
the infamous house (and its spooky occupants) at the end of Dell
Road as they finally crack the mysteries that have haunted Billins
since the Civil War.
Die tingerige Wian is baie opgewonde wanneer hy uiteindelik in pleegsorg geplaas word en van die weeshuis kan ontsnap. Net jammer dat die oorgewig boelie, Pierre, saam met hom by dieselfde gesin gaan woon. Maar Wian se nuwe ouers is glad nie gaaf en ordentlik soos hy hom voorgestel het nie. Inteendeel, hulle maak hom doodbenoud.
Veral toe hulle hom voorstel aan sy nuwe "suster", Cornelia - 'n massiewe, mak krokodil wat in die agterplaas woon.
A woman trapped on a mountain attempts to survive more than one kind of monster, in a dread-inducing horror novel from the national bestselling author Christina Henry.
Mattie can't remember a time before she and William lived alone on a mountain together. She must never make him upset. But when Mattie discovers the mutilated body of a fox in the woods, she realizes that they’re not alone after all.
There’s something in the woods that wasn’t there before, something that makes strange cries in the night, something with sharp teeth and claws.
When three strangers appear on the mountaintop looking for the creature in the woods, Mattie knows their presence will anger William. Terrible things happen when William is angry.
When hot "it-couple" Brad and Shelley are brutally murdered in a manor
on the edge of town, a group of teen friends investigate.
Set in Sanera, a small community in California where rumour spreads as
fast as the fire on the day of the killings, the theory is the old
ghoul who haunts the house after his own murder hundreds of years ago
has finally taken revenge.
As Cam, Jonesy, Amber and new-girl Buffy investigate, the rumour feels
closer to the truth than they ever dared think possible, and as they
enter the mansion themselves, the idea of splitting up to find evidence
will prove to be either the best ... or worst decision of all...

uitleef in die plaaslike teater se musiekproduksie. Maar alles is nie pluis in die

die legende van die meisie in die maanlig. Wie is die vrou in die swart lykswa wat
Babette agtervolg? En waarom sien haar nuwe vriendin, Avani, ook die aaklige
toneel wat een middag haar kamer afspeel? Babette moet veg vir haar lewe
wanneer sy haar vasloop in 'n horde grillige zombies. Maar sal sy haar grootste
vrese kan oorkom?

lookalike doll. When she disappears into the woods one day, he
knows something is terribly wrong. Did the witch strike? Has Erica
been "took"?
