Haunted
About this book
A fantastic collection of ghost stories from leading children's authors Derek Landy ( Scepter of the Ancients ), Philip Reeve ( Mortal Engines ), Joseph Delaney ( Revenge of the Witch ), Susan Cooper ( The Dark Is Rising ), Eleanor Updale ( Montmorency ), Jamila Gavin ( Coram Boy ), Mal Peet ( Keeper ), Matt Haig ( Samuel Blink and the Forbidden Forest ), Berlie Doherty ( The Goblin Baby ), Robin Jarvis ( The Dark Portal ), and Sam Llewellyn ( Little Darlings ) have come together to offer 11 ghost stories. The stories include a drowned boy who is determined to find someone to play with; a lost child trapped in a mirror, ready to pull you in; devilish creatures, waiting with bated breath for their next young victim; and an ancient woodland reawakened. Some will make you scream, some will make you shiver, but all will haunt you gently long after you've put the book down.
