Features: Have you ever heard strange howls in the middle of the night? Have you ever heard footsteps in the dark—only to see no one there? Have you seen terrifying shadows, eyes watching you from the gloom, or heard a voice calling your name from behind? If so, you should understand that strange prickling sensation—the kind that makes your skin crawl and leaves you stunned. In these books, ghosts whisper in attics; frightened children suddenly become invisible; scarecrows come to life and wander the fields; puppets and dolls also come alive, scaring people everywhere. Ghost in the Puppets II: Emily is an average girl with a talent for puppetry. Emily's older sister Sarah is not only a good student but also a talented artist who has won major awards for her paintings. One day, Dad buys Emily a new puppet. After reading the note inside the puppet's pocket, Emily starts practicing. But then a series of strange things begin to happen. Ghost in the Auditorium: Jake is a sixth-grade student at Woots Mill Elementary. He's adorable and mischievous, sometimes loves to play pranks, and often causes his classmates to laugh heartily after scaring them. The school decides to put on a play called The Ghost, and Jake is chosen to play the ghost, while Brooke is chosen to play the girl Esmeralda. Before the official rehearsals, the director, Miss Walker, tells the students the story of a ghost from 72 years ago that occurred at the school. But from then on, the shadow of the ghost falls over the rehearsal site.
