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... Some things must be learned the
hard way ... Reed sees an opportunity to teach the school bully not
to mess with him, but ends up mangling the lesson. Robert, an
exhausted single father, gets a crash course in parenting when he
buys a fancy new teddy bear to watch and entertain his young son.
Chris, eager to join the Science Club at school, agrees to undergo
a grisly experiment to be accepted. But in the malevolent universe
of Five Nights at Freddy's, there's always an education in pain. In
this seventh volume, Five Nights at Freddy's creator Scott Cawthon
spins three sinister novella-length stories from different corners
of his series' canon, featuring cover art from fan-favourite artist
LadyFiszi. Readers beware: this collection of terrifying tales is
enough to unsettle even the most hardened Five Nights at Freddy's
fans.
Setting: New York City. Kid scientists Peter Venkman, Ray Stantz,
and Egon Spengler are investigating ghosts and other paranormal
activity in the city. They see their first ghost (Slimer) in the
NYC Public Library and that leads them to create the Ghostbusters,
setting up their "club" in an old firehouse. Soon, business is
booming as the kid are recruited to capture ghosts throughout the
city. Winston Zeddemore and Janine join as well. But there is
something sinister happening at an apartment building and the
Ghostbusters must put a stop to it (and the Stay Puft marshmallow
man) before the city is overrun with ghouls.
A boy sneaks into an old church to confront a mad ghost in this
adventure by the author of The House with a Clock in Its Walls It's
the 1950s when Johnny Dixon's mother dies, his father goes to fight
in the Korean War, and he goes to live with his grandparents.
Although life in a new house is strange, Johnny's "Grampa" listens
to his favorite ballgames, takes him on long walks, and tells him
stories of the strange mysteries that lurk in the shadows. Best of
all, he's friends with Professor Childermass, an eccentric academic
who's about to take Johnny on the adventure of a lifetime. When the
professor learns Johnny loves ghost stories, he tells the boy the
spookiest legend in Duston Heights, Massachusetts-the tale of the
haunted church on the edge of town, with demonic carvings on its
altar, and the troubled spirit of mad Father Baart, who is said to
have killed two people before vanishing long ago. With the
professor as his guide, Johnny sets out on a quest that will put
him face-to-face with the crazy, long-dead priest. The first book
in the delightful Johnny Dixon series by the author who provides
"suspense and action aplenty" (Booklist), The Curse of the Blue
Figurine is a good old-fashioned Gothic adventure.
FIVE WOMEN ARE DEAD. The killer leaves no fingerprints, no DNA. Police
are utterly stumped. In a world where only women can use magic and the
men who know about it seek to eradicate them, three damaged young women
- one cursed, one hunted, one out for revenge - will team up to track
down and take out a brutal supernatural killer.
Jude Wolf is rich as sin and handsome as the devil. But she's also
cursed. Her immortal soul is tethered to a rather hateful demon - and
she wants the hell out of the deal. What Jude needs is a cursewriter -
and she thinks the string of dead women, all of whom she suspects are
messing with the occult, might just be able to lead her to one.
Zara Jones has also been tracking the murders since they began. Her
older sister was the killer's first victim. Zara doesn't just want
revenge, she wants to find a way to bring her sister back. What Zara
needs is a witch, a sorcerer, a necromancer - in fact, what Zara needs
is a cursewriter. At the apartment of the fifth victim, Jude and Zara
meet by chance, and there they find a clue that brings their paths
crashing together: a strange business card bearing three words. Emer
Byrne. Cursewriter.
