Passion and Poison

This is a book of little scary horror stories.  My favorite was called “The Severed Hand.”  It’s about a girl who likes a man named Mr. Fox, but Mr. Fox isn’t who she thinks he is …  [Fast 23]

Night of the Living Dummy

Lindy and Kris are 12-year-old twins.  One day they go outside and find a dummy.  Lindy takes up ventriloquism, and being the younger twin, Kris copies her.  Weird things start to happen after Kris reads some magical spell that apparently makes dummies come to life.  Like all of R.L Stine’s Goosebumps books, this one has a creepy ending.  [theSpaceCowboy=]

Cirque du Freak

cirquedufreak_110Darren Shan and his best friend Steve Leopard come across two tickets to see a freak show – until Steve realizes that the head person is a real vampire.  When Darren finally believes him, something really bad happens to the two of them.  This book is funny, sad, and weird, but makes you want to read more and more.  It’s way better than Twilight – it kinda relates to a normal kid’s life.  So read this book right away!!  [Celine]

Hell Phone

hellphone_110This book is creepy.  So Nick bought a phone so he could talk to his girlfriend, right?  Well, she’s not the only person calling his phone now.  This phone has no caller ID, and he can’t return the phone.  Nick thinks it’s a bargain, so he buys it.  The first call he gets is from a creeper – especially when you don’t know who it is, and they’re asking you your name, and where you are!  That’s only the beginning, though.  Read the rest to find out what happens.  [Wowza]

Frankenstein

frankenstein_110So what if you knew the secret to making dead corpses come to life? There’s this guy, Dr. Frankenstein, who knows that secret. So, he’s awfully lonely, and what he basically does is say, “Oh, I’m going to get the parts of corpses and make a human!” Well, that’s exactly what he did, and it wasn’t the best idea. Frankenstein isn’t the best looking guy out there, and Dr. Frankenstein doesn’t want anything to do with him, in fact he sort of hates him. But all Frankenstein wants is love, what’s wrong with that? Well, everyone is afraid of him, and therefore everyone hates him. So (this is a qoute from the book), “If I cannot find love, I will inspire FEAR!” So he’s getting revenge on Dr. Frankenstein for creating him.  [Heather]

The Headless Ghost

headlessghost_110This book is about a boy who discovered a weird room, and that room had a ghost.  The ghost got the little boy’s head and threw it away, and the boy died.  At night the boy comes back to life, but he becomes a headless ghost.

Darkness Creeping

darknesscreepingThis is a really great book for people who love to read something creepy.  There are many short, scary stories, which are all very good in their own way.  I highly recommend this book.
