The show only comes on at midnight. And it's taking requests.
Gemma Ostrowski has never been quiet for a full minute in her whole life. Eleven seconds is her all-time record, and her fifth-grade class has the stopwatch proof. So when Gemma spins the dial on her beat-up handheld radio and finds a kids' call-in show broadcasting between midnight and one a.m. - a show where the host says her name before she says it - she does the one thing she has always been best at.
She calls in.
The host is friendly. The host plays her song. The host asks her to keep talking, just a little longer, just one more sentence, just one more request. And in the morning, Gemma's voice comes out thinner. Flatter. Like something scraped a layer right off the top of it.
Dash Moreno barely talks at all. Nine shrugs, and Gemma knows what every one of them means. He's the only person who notices what's happening to his best friend's voice - and the only one brave enough to follow her up the hill to the old WKRO transmitter station, the dead tower that hasn't broadcast in forty years and is still, somehow, humming in the dark.
Inside that station is a microphone. Inside that microphone are a thousand voices that never got to hang up.
Tonight the host wants one more. And he's saving the best for last.
Inside this Creep Street book:
- A haunted radio show that only exists for one hour a night
- A monster stitched together from a thousand stolen voices
- A motormouth heroine who talks her way into the worst trouble of her life
- A quiet best friend who has to find his own voice to save hers
- Short, fast chapters with a cliffhanger every few pages
- Spooky-fun scares with no gore and no bad language
Perfect for reluctant readers. Creep Street books are standalone middle-grade horror novellas built for kids ages 8 to 12 reading at a third- to sixth-grade level. Every book is a complete story with a brand-new town, a brand-new monster, and a twist ending nobody sees coming - so you can start anywhere in the series. Great for classroom libraries, school book bins, sleepover reading, Halloween gifts, and any kid who says they don't like reading (yet).
Turn the dial. Take the call. Just don't say your name.
