All Hallows Eve - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Every Halloween, the children of Hollow Creek go door to door in search of candy. This year, something else is waiting for them. When a witch, a skeleton, and a mummy rise from a three-hundred-year-old grave on All Hallows Eve, they go trick-or-treating too - and at every door that opens for them, they collect a different kind of treat. One by one, the town's children hand over their souls without ever knowing it's happening, until their eyes turn black and something ancient and hungry looks out from behind their faces, turning them against the very parents who love them. Danny Whitfield and his friends are the only ones who notice something is wrong. But it's Halloween night, and nobody believes a group of teenagers who claim monsters are loose in Hollow Creek - not their parents, and certainly not the police, who send them home for wasting time with ghost stories. Left with no one else to turn to, Danny, Becca, Jenna, Marcus, and Tyler dig up an old, buried ledger in the town's oldest cemetery, and discover they may be the last thing standing between Hollow Creek and a debt three centuries in the making. They have one night to translate a dead man's warning, gather what they need, and confront three ancient things that have waited three hundred years for exactly this chance - before the sun rises and every stolen soul is lost for good. A tale of small-town Halloween horror about friendship, sacrifice, and the price of keeping the people you love safe - even when no one else believes the danger is real.
