Ghost stories would be boring without thrills, chills and drama. These are fresh and imaginative stories of hauntings that mix in a little magical realism and fantasy. There's even a bit of ghostly humor. The twins-Jack and Sylvia, are the heroes-normal kids who keep getting tangled up in weird and supernatural adventures.
The stories take place in an old mansion, a haunted lighthouse and a bleak bell tower-all in the danger zone between goosebumps and the graveyard. There are grim and scary situations from which there appears to be no way to escape.
These fast-paced stories include richly described settings, strange characters, and a colorful variety of ghosts. Readers will be rewarded with the joy of being chased by a skeleton, surrounded by killer wasps, hunted by a giant spider, surviving a shipwreck, and waking up floating above the clouds.
The twins don't always agree with each other about everything, which confuses some people, but is fine with them. Jack likes reading and baseball. Sylvia likes soccer. They are each strong in their own way. And when things look grim, they survive because of their intelligence, courage, and the kindness they show to those who live on the other side of reality.
Monsters. Thrills. Fantasy. Drama. Ghosts. A good spine-chilling read.
Although created for advanced middle-grade readers, adults have been asking for more. Because of that, we can say this collection of stories is for brave readers of all ages, from middle-grade and up.
