Summary

Stranger Things meets Point Horror in the first of a brilliant new series for listeners aged nine and above from Yvette Fielding, British television's first lady of the paranormal and presenter of Most Haunted.

When Clovis, Eve and Tom decide to play with a ouija board in an old abandoned house on Halloween, none of them foresees the horrors they’re about to unleash.

What starts out as a bit of fun soon transcends into something far more terrifying when a distressed and determined spirit follows them home.

Before long, the friends are caught up in a series of events beyond their wildest imaginings and their journey as ghost hunters begins....

Well worth it!

Yvette, what can I say other than well done! I want to listen to the story all over again! The young ages of the characters don’t matter, it’s the whole that has you gripped. Definitely give it a go!

Love Yvette Fielding. It’s a children’s book but as an adult,I enjoyed this very much.

Full 5 stars.
Was a good short story.
Loved the narrator and found it very fitting to the book. I listened to this in one sitting.
Although it’s aimed as a children’s book,I still thoroughly enjoyed this very much. I’m now going to purchase the other 2 books she did after this one. Again,children’s fiction but as a ghosts and supernatural fan,I must listen and especially since they are by the author. A big fan of Most Haunted. Her books do not disappoint. A full 5 stars.

Loved it

I came across this book by accident but glad I did. It's a book for children / teenagers and I'm a grown woman who has always been interested in the Paranormal, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Yvette and myself are the same age so I understood the Rutherford connection and a few other things. I'm going to listen to book number 2.
