Críticas:
"This kind of fresh new addition to the series--not to mention its many laugh-out-loud moments throughout--is the reason kids will want to keep checking in with Lily, Jasper and Katie to see what fresh brand of horror and hilarity they'll stumble upon next." --Kidsreads.com "Anderson tucks in an oversize spider, a squirt gun that shoots holy water, and even a touch of romance, while Cyrus adds spooky illustrations to another action-packed episode in the Pals in Peril series." --Booklist, October 15, 2011 "This fifth book in Anderson's good-humored satirical series gives new life-er, death?-to the paranormal horror novel and emphasizes the importance of reading comprehension if one is to avoid becoming a flesh-eating ghoul.... Kurt Cyrus's black-and-white illustrations aptly combine the hair-raising with the tongue-in-cheek; e.g., zombies in matching "I'm with Stupid" T-shirts." --The Horn Book, November/December 2011 "The latest in Anderson's madcap pastiche series takes on the undead of upstate New York.... The layers of nonsense grow ever thicker and funnier as our heroes encounter a haunted theater that advertises "comical skits...Ha! Ha! Ha!", a ghost actress from French-occupied Russia (or was that Russia-occupied France?) and a giant Adirondack tarantula. Ridiculous in all the best ways." --Kirkus Reviews, September 15, 2011
Reseña del editor:
Our intrepid heroes are home from their Delaware crime-stopping excitement, only to discover that Lily's mom has become possessed by a menacing zombie who wants to take over the world! (Or, at least, the world of stage and screen.) Thank goodness Lily's friends Katie, Jasper, and foxy Blue-Hen-State monk Drgnan Pghlik are around-accompanied by Jasper's Astounding High-Pressure Holy Water Extruder Gun, of course-to help save the day. But not before some truly scary things happen, things involving stuff like killer tarantulas, web-footed teen vampire boys, bad weather (it's a horror novel, remember?), and, well, I can't really go on. It's TOO TERRIFYING FOR WORDS!
