I SPY WITH MY LITTLE EYE
*to be read first before Knock, Knock…Who’s Dead? and It Creeped at Midnight*
Blake Williamson wants him and his friends to become the new One Direction, but Melissa, a scowling stepmother who wants nothing to do with her stepson, banishes Blake and his friends to the attic with the warning; If he wants to sing and dance, he must clean out the attic and use it.
Spending hours cleaning and dusting, Blake discovers long-lost treasures and photos of happier times just a few short years ago. And then a strange thing happens…
A hole emerges through the adjoining wall, and unable to contain their curiosity, Blake and his friends peer through, only to find very strange things indeed…
An ominous green glow emanates through the hole and they see arms and blood flying through the air. But Blake’s not sure if he’s seeing things or just not being told the truth…
All he wants is for his mother to come back to him, and the neighbours say they can make it happen, but they want his stepmother in return…
KNOCK, KOCK…WHO’S DEAD?
**to be read second after I Spy With My Little Eye, and before It Creeped at Midnight**
After a menacing warning, Blake Williamson has been told he will get his dead mother back within the week, that she will knock three times and then three more. It also means his wicked witch of a stepmother, Melissa, will have to die in her place.
Not that he cares. He hates his stepmother and wants her gone. His mother is the only woman he wants in his and his father’s life.
But nagging doubts about his mother’s accident and death are leaving him cold. Melissa had told him something just before she fell down the stairs that prompted Blake’s suspicions to rise up, and now he has a driving need to look into Melissa and her past. And he finds it all right, a past she wants buried and hidden forever…especially after what she did to get what she wanted…
A past that finally catches up to her when she answers the door…

What really happened that night three years ago when Adalind died?
Hanahan is on the case, and he solves the mystery with the ominous warning to Michael on New Year’s Eve. And then, as the clock starts striking twelve, there are three knocks on the door…

TRICK OR TREAT
It’s Halloween, and the students of Richmond High are out trick or treating. And, as usual, Robbie Colbert has gorged on his favourite Reese’s chocolate, making him sick to his stomach and annoying his friends no end.
But he doesn’t let that stop him from entering the house at lot 666 on Derbon Street. Yes, that house. The house that every man and his dog avoids regardless of what day it is. Puffed up with bravado, Robbie decides to enter the property in search of more candy.
When he doesn’t return, his best friend, Pete Wells, goes in after him, and when he doesn’t return, Jasmine, Anna, Bella and Kyle seek help. Finding none, they reluctantly go in after their friends.
Then the nightmare begins…
A twisted game of trick or treat, starring a dancing pumpkin, a chocolate- gorging hell beast, and an old man who just wants it all to end. And with round after round of questions the children must answer correctly to stay alive, the night continues to turn from one horror to the next.
Can they make it out alive, or will they be gorged on like one of Robbie’s Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups?

And that’s not the only thing that frightens the students. A satanic symbol keeps popping up everywhere, there’s a ghoulishly twisted tree with a dead man hanging from it, and a curse that has the whole town under its spell.
Can the teens figure out who’s reliving the three-hundred-year-old curse and break it before anything else happens? Like their untimely deaths?

About a plague of zombies rising on Halloween night. Which also happens to be a blood moon…
Ignoring the story, they settle into their cabin and soon find strange symbols painted under their beds, on the window shutters, and on every store window in town. But it’s the odd wooden box that Casey finds that leads them down a very dark path of discovery.
With the girls enamoured by Chatan, the local artist and campground manager, it’s up to Flynn and his friends to find a way to defeat the monsters that have risen in the night. But they may just need Casey’s help, especially when they find out she’s intricately woven into the creatures’ pasts.

THE DEMON RESIDES
Millions have seen the Nightmare on Elm Street movies, but do we actually know Freddy Krueger’s not real?
This point has left Jude Lennon questioning his sanity when he starts having nightmares after watching the movies. He’s living his own version of them; being chased by a clawed hand, waking up with night sweats, and having his sheet rip into four pieces which twist themselves around him like silent assassins. But if Freddy Krueger is just a fictional character in fictional movies, why does he feel as though something more real, more alive, more evil, is out to cause more hell than anyone could imagine?
After a telepathic conversation with the man behind “Freddy”, warning him that Freddy is indeed real, Jude sets out to find the truth once and for all, only to find out it’s not the bed this particular demon resides in…
And remember…don’t…fall…asleep…

But all it takes is one bite. One bite from a rat with three legs and a stumpy tail to set her on a journey of self-discovery, confidence, and standing up for herself. It also gives her powers, like the power to hear and speak to rats, and to make them do her bidding.
When the factory manager accuses her of theft and fires not only her, but both of her parents as well, Marlaine puts in a telepathic call for revenge to her new friends living under the town. Friends in their thousands respond, especially one who is bigger than the wood cutting machine in the mill. And when he gets hungry, he needs to feed…on human flesh.

FUN FACTS ABOUT BONES 6
– All Clowns Must Die!, The Demon Resides, Infestation and The Bones Of Wrath: Terrors took a two year hiatus. Meant for release in 2020 (what a year that was), the ideas for the books were held over until 2021 when they could be realised in full.
– All Clowns Must Die! is a detective murder mystery crime surrounding the mysterious killings of clowns. T.K. had the clown picture for several years and knew she wanted to use it at some point. The idea for the title font comes from the mysterious notes left at the crime scenes.
– The Demon Resides is a Nightmare on Elm Street Freddy Krueger inspired slasher thriller, while Infestation is inspired by Stephen King’s Graveyard Shift, and Spiderman.
– The Bones Of Wrath: Terrors carries on from The Demon Resides and The Bones of Wrath: Monsters. Terrors are those monsters NOT in the bed with wicked fairies in forests, bad monsters, shadow people, and possessed dolls.
