Stranger Things meets Point Horror in the first of a brilliant new series for readers aged 11+ from Yvette Fielding, British television's first lady of the paranormal and presenter of Most Haunted. When Clovis, Eve and Tom decide to play with a ouija board in an old abandoned house on Halloween, none of them foresees the horrors they’re about to unleash. What starts out as a bit of fun, soon transcends into something far more terrifying when a distressed and determined spirit follows them home. Before long the friends are caught up in a series of events beyond their wildest imaginings and their journey as ghost hunters begins . . . 'When I grow up I wanna be a ghost hunter!' Keith Lemon 'If you’re reading this scary book in bed then it might be wise to leave the landing light on' Paul O’Grady 'I'm too scared to read this!' Matt Lucas

A fun time! I've learnt that I really like a middle grade paranormal and this was no exception.
Things I Enjoyed:
- I enjoyed the friendship between the three children! It felt so wholesome. They all had their own personalities and felt distinct from each other. More importantly, I loved who it felt as if they knew each other intimately and embraced all of the differences between them.
- ADULTS EXSIST! I feel like usually with middle grades there is no adult supervision, but in this book not only are there adults, they experienced the same craziness as the kids. Furthermore, when they went to go solve the puzzle, AN ADULT WAS WITH THEM THE WHOLE TIME!!! It didn't minimise the scariness or the thrill factor!
Things Not For Me
- I'm not a kid so the childish humour of a farting dog and a bad-mouthed parrot didn't land on me. I didn't mind it though, just didn't make me laugh. Also it felt quite cliché and unoriginal to have a potty mouthed parrot because of a previous owner.
