Dare to Be Scared: Thirteen Stories to Chill and Thrill

Robert D. San Souci pens a collection of fantastic, frightful stories in Dare to Be Scared: Thirteen Stories to Chill and Thrill, illus. by David Ouimet. Selections range from short tales like ""Nighttown,"" in which a boy's vacation in the Caribbean goes horribly awry, to longer entries like ""Hungry Ghosts,"" in which a restless spirit swallows a boy's soul. All provide a suspenseful atmosphere and plenty of dark doings, complemented by Ouimet's eerie b&w artwork.
