I found this in storage at my parents house over the holidays, and decided to stick it in my suitcase to bring home with me. I remember I got it in elementary school, at one of those book fairs or book orders, the highlights of my life back then since I've always been so fond of reading haha. I was bored yesterday and decided to read it over, because I tend to get very sentimental. I swear I love it now just as much as I did then! All the little creepy facts and brain busters are interesting and enjoyable for people of all ages!

What is it that makes the hair on your arms stand up or chills run down your back? Is it inaminate objects that come to life, witches or ghosts; maybe it is unusual visions or coincidences that just seem a little weird. Whatever it is you will find it in this macabre collection of various spooks and weird facts. This book would be great to draw in students that are interest in reality, but want to know the bizarre and unconventional.

Children will really get a big kick out of the tidbits of creepy information found in the book. There’s even multiple choice questions to see how well you may know weird stuff and if you can tell if a statement is fact or fiction.
