A themed collection of ten tales to gently spook young scary-story fans and evoke a shiver of laughter as well as fright

Featuring stories from a host of top children’s authors and illustrators including Tony Ross, Dyan Sheldon, G.K. Chesterton and Nicholas Allan, this creepy compendium is packed with ghosts, witches, monsters and bogeymen – all the ingredients needed for a tremulous tale at bedtime, or any time. Brand new illustrations from Nicholas Allan accompany a ghostly tale from Hilltop Hospital; the exuberant witch who got on the train brightens the lives of a host of commuters; and a resourceful little boy catches the elusive Bogeyman.

These wonderfully creepy stories will thrill and delight the youngest of readers, without scaring them out of their wits.
