Description
Welcome to SHIVER POINT, home of spooks, screams and small-town horror! Enter if you dare...
When Riley notices a new scarecrow in the field by her house, she doesn't think much of it. Until she hears rumours of break ins across town and strange figures sighted in the fields when the sun goes down. And then one night she hears a tap at the window...
It's time to get the Shiver Squad on the case. But when all roads lead them to the abandoned Darkraven Farm, will they be able to save the town from the scarecrow's vengeance in time?
Packed with chills and thrills, SHIVER POINT is a hair-raising horror series for readers aged 9-12, perfect for fans of GOOSEBUMPS and DREAD WOOD.
A Note From the Publisher
A pacy read with short chapters, lots of dialogue, and tonnes of kid appeal, SHIVER POINT combines the gore and ghouls of GOOSEBUMPS with the humour and hijinks of Scooby Doo for a modern young audience.
Seamlessly entwines the fantastical and terrifying with real-world elements - alongside the ghoulish investigation at the heart of each book, there will be a relatable family/friendship subplot.
Perfect for fans of GOOSEBUMPS, CRATER LAKE, and THE BREAKFAST CLUB ADVENTURES.
