Birthday girl and queen of all things creepy Kelly Garcia is all set to have the perfect night. Her parents are going out of town, and with just a babysitter, Kelly’s practically on her own. It’s the perfect time for a virtual webcam sleepover where she and her friends can scare each other silly by telling ghost stories and summoning the spirit of Miss Mary, a woman from their small town who died tragically a long time ago. But when her friends start disappearing one by one and the babysitter is nowhere to be found, Kelly starts getting scared for real. Is Kelly next to face the ghost’s wrath?

Creepy full-color graphic panels tell the story with the same horror as the original novel! This chilling tale is a level 5 on the Creep-o-Meter.

100% CREEPY! As a 30 year old reading this, I know my students will 100% be creeped out and love it! The art for this graphic novel is totally camp and I’m all here for it! The art isn’t like Stephen Gammell’s illustrations. But it’s enough for kids to be spooked but not have nightmares over. The story itself on the other hand may keep kids sleeping with the lights on. Definitely a graphic novel series I need my elementary library. Will get students excited for reading. Definitely a book that the students will be passing around in class to share.

It was ok. I guess these books are not so bad when you’re 21yo lmao. I guessed the ending pretty early, but there was one moment where I hesitated! If I had to guess, I think the book is probably scarier than the graphic novel. Finally, the art style is cute, so I like it, but at the same time I think it’s too cute. I prefer the vibes of the original Creepover (although I like that there’s more diversity now).

I think the book was good but also creepy but it was really good.

I was honestly pleasantly surprised by this tale. It was fun, a little creepy, and it definitely kept the suspense alive throughout the novel. This graphic novel format made it more accessible to a multitude of readers, and I honestly loved the virtual sleepover concept that took place in this story. It was a fun twist on your typical teeny sleepover reads.

The characters were fun, though a little predictable at times. There was a fun element of surprises a few twists and turns, a little reminisce of R.L. Stine. It was engaging, which isn't always easily attainable for a story in this format on his topic. I didn't want to stop reading (even when I had to), and I can see students and younger readers eating this up. If you have little ones or students that love Stine, P.J. Night captures that fun horror and gives it their own twist.

I would recommend this author to anyone looking for a little fun and creepiness in their stories.

This was a completely adorable, quick little ghost story graphic novel! I think anyone who used to read Goosebumps can see every turn coming from a mile away, but if you're twelve, you might even get spooked.

The artwork was lovely. There was excellent continuity between the panels. (I couldn't help myself. I was constantly watching Kelly's blanket for the moment she lost it.) It was a sweet ending and Kelly pretty much deserved everything she got.

The worst part was just thinking about these people driving around in a snowstorm. Parents can't make it home because of a blizzard? Better call the babysitter because she can totally make it in her (presumably) crappy teenager car.

Very decent middle grade scare. 3/5

I really enjoyed this book, and I'm glad I got to read it on the week of Halloween. The story is pretty good. It has a good buildup, a few jump scares, and a nice ending. The main character does come off as a bit bratty, but not terribly so. It's more understandable given that its around the time of her birthday. The art is pretty good, and not too gory (I wouldn't expect it to be so, given that the book is for middle grade readers). All in all, it was a fun read.

For the Goosebump lover in graphic novels. Can be a smidgen spooky, but overall not a horror, but you will scream.... with delight.

This is the second Creepover book I've read! Everyone was just being silly for a (cool) birthday party! And of course, there's the Queen of Scares.
