A Ghoulish Good Time

A Ghoulish Good Times - Tales to Make You Scream (Daerk Cemetery series) is a collection of six short horror stories written for teenagers to scare their inner monsters out of them.Soul Stones: How do you live with the consequences of a death when you, in some small way, helped contribute to its passing? That is the dilemma that Chris Whitaker faces as she remembers the events that led to the death of her best friend, Maggie Malone, and almost to her own.The Vanishing: One of the most dangerous things a person can do when driving a car is fall asleep at the wheel. Just ask Leta Tyler - she crashed her car into a tree and managed to walk away from it. Her luck runs out, though, when she gets to the eerie little town of Wakefield where the residents are not what they appear to be and no soul is ever safe.The Change: Sara Crew has done one of the worst things a person can do - she has just managed to wipe every living being off the face of the Earth with a wish. Even though it was made in anger against her sister, she had no idea when she made the wish how horribly it would backfire upon herself. When we unleash our inner monsters upon the world - how many of us are strong enough to survive them coming after us?Pumpkin Parts: There are moments in Charlie's life when she wished that she could just start the day over again . . . or skip it altogether. Anything would be preferable to experiencing a brother's betrayal of his sister's trust or having one's eyes opened to the realization that true monsters exist in the world. All Hallows' Eve: Sam Monroe is having a bad day - a very bad day. As if starting high school in a new town wasn't bad enough, now he's being hunted down in unfamiliar woods and a creepy old cemetery by a bully who's lost his mind. It's all enough to make anyone lose their mental marbles, especially when you add the dead into the mix.Monsters Adeep: Humankind thinks that we are at the top of the food chain. Charles Devereaux is about to find out that isn't the truth. Some things in the universe are older than us and don't have a tolerance for humanity's inhuman treatment for the world around them.
