    About this audiobook

    Many kids claim to have seen ghosts in all sorts of places—cemeteries, bedrooms, attics, schools, roadways, forests, caves. Often, experts were called in to investigate these apparent hauntings, and most of the time these so-called experts walked away baffled. The only thing that everyone could agree on was that something very weird had happened, something that could never be fully explained.

    This first book in Allan Zullo’s popular Haunted Kids series is a collection of 11 creepy tales inspired by real-life cases taken from the files of noted ghost hunters. Do ghosts really exist? Well, you’ll have to decide that for yourself after listening to:

    The Devil’s Garden
    Grave Consequences
    The Headless Trainman
    The Secret of Room 333
    The Home Wrecker
    The Ghost of Slow Sam
    The Baby-Sitting Ghost
    The Scaredy Cats
    The Thing in the Attic
    The Warning
    The Glowing Ball of Death

    So, Turn Out the Lights, Turn up the Volume, and Turn Loose the Terror!

      This book I owned is a very interesting and a spine-chilling one! I enjoyed reading this book. It has short stories as to horrific things that happened to kids. It is very hard to choose which of the short stories in this novel was the one I enjoyed reading the most, because they all were fantastic and were horrific. If you want to read this book, you may want to borrow it from me or probably search it up somewhere. Nevertheless, I would recommend this book to teens because its scary for little kids to read and its not any picture book, but a chapter book with short stories in it.
    • 5/5
      A *wonderfully* creepy book! I very much believe in ghosts, my mom has seen one before, and these kind of true-story ghost accounts definitely interest me. Even given my biases, though, this book was better then most of it's kind that I've read before. The stories are easy to follow and written for school-aged kids, but real and creepy enough to give me shivers.
