Creepy Shorts

Who doesn't love a bit of a scare, especially at bedtime? We've all heard the old stories of hooks, hags, and haunted graveyards, but the thrill of a good creep out never gets old. "Creepy Shorts," a new collection of original ghostly and ghastly tales, will keep kids huddled under the covers with a flashlight well past lights out.

The heroes and heroines of "Creepy Shorts" battle severed hands and crazed teddy bears, eerie living reflections and vengeful closet monsters. A group of middle schoolers is even sent on a nightmare bus ride straight to hell. Through it all these kids must rely on their own smarts and strength to wiggle their way out of magical and macabre mayhem.

In the spirit of Alvin Schwartz's classic "Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark," "Creepy Shorts" is blood-chilling good fun for young teens.
