Monsters, mayhem, and rooms no one wants to rent. The New York Public Library selected
this book for its annual
list, Books for the Teen Age. The emphasis here
is on tension, chills,
and wild plot twists,
rather than blood and gore.
Features 10 stories, including:
“Bobbing for Monsters” by Daniel McPherson, Tazewell High School, Tazewell, VA.
Jeff thinks it’s just another Halloween party . . . until he glimpses something behind the monster masks.
“Party Games” by Matt Phillips,
St. Paul Academy, St. Paul, MN.
Mark thought a weekend without parents would be a blast. He hadn’t counted on spending it in the basement playing cat and mouse with a madman.
“Visions of the Fetish” by Scott Evans, Temple High School, Temple, TX.
In the tradition of Poe and Lovecraft, a Gothic tale of atmospheric horror and dreams.
“Will be the volume of choice for both readers and
budding writers . . . ‘The Boarder’ demonstrates the
sensibility if not the style of Flannery O’Connor, with
its low-key description of a strange family that cannot understand why all its boarders keep moving out.”
