After freeing forty-seven lost souls from Hollow Hill, Lila, Harper, Sam, and Mateo believe Cedar Creek is safe at last. But peace doesn't last long-because the pumpkins arrive.
Carved with strange runes and glowing with a hunger that isn't their own, the jack-o'-lanterns appear on porches, in alleys, and even beside children's beds. They whisper names. They roll closer when no one is watching. And they are only the beginning.
When a haunted carnival unfolds at the edge of town, complete with tired-eyed carousel horses and a calliope that never learned to stop, the friends realize they're facing a power older and hungrier than Hollow Hill-the Lantern Keeper. Once sworn to protect, now twisted by centuries of fear, the Keeper wants to count every child in Cedar Creek as his own.
Armed with lanterns, muffins, chalk, and the strength of friendship, the kids must lead their entire town in a battle of names, courage, and welcome before the Keeper seals them in his endless parade.
A thrilling sequel filled with eerie atmosphere, heart-pounding adventure, and the reminder that true power comes from standing together, The Curse of the Pumpkin Lantern is perfect for readers who love spooky mysteries, haunted carnivals, and the warmth of courage against the dark.
