It's one-stop shopping for everything scary: a survey of over 50 of
the world's most gruesome places, creatures, and scary stories,
organised like an encyclopedia - from "arachnids" to "Zombies" and
written just for kids. It blends nonfiction (How do you say "boo"
in other languages? Can a person actually be scared to death?) with
fiction (stories of creepy monsters from around the world), and
hands-on activities (from applying zombie makeup to creating your
own ghost stories). Take a tour of Borneo's Gomantong Cave where
bats, cockroaches, spiders, and rats live together in the millions
among the pitch black. Or enter into the Beauregard-Keyes House in
New Orleans where Civil War soldiers still do battle in the front
hall. Discover the origins of mythical horrors straight out of your
nightmares like the Mongolian Death Worm and The Bell Witch, as
well as creatures we only wish were fiction like killer bees, the
deadly insects created by scientists in a failed lab experiment in
1950. Identify plants like the Machineel of Southern Florida and
Central America, a tropical tree covered in succulent looking fruit
full of deadly, mouth burning, throat swelling poison. Read and
share ghost stories from around the globe that will make you and
your friends jump. Plus DIY activities: Create your own haunting;
brew up a batch of fake blood; hold you own seance.
