About this audiobook
Many kids claim to have seen ghosts in all sorts of places—cemeteries, bedrooms, attics, schools, roadways, forests, caves. Often, experts were called in to investigate these apparent hauntings, and most of the time these so-called experts walked away baffled. The only thing that everyone could agree on was that something very weird had happened, something that could never be fully explained.
This first book in Allan Zullo’s popular Haunted Kids series is a collection of 11 creepy tales inspired by real-life cases taken from the files of noted ghost hunters. Do ghosts really exist? Well, you’ll have to decide that for yourself after listening to:
The Devil’s Garden
Grave Consequences
The Headless Trainman
The Secret of Room 333
The Home Wrecker
The Ghost of Slow Sam
The Baby-Sitting Ghost
The Scaredy Cats
The Thing in the Attic
The Warning
The Glowing Ball of Death
So, Turn Out the Lights, Turn up the Volume, and Turn Loose the Terror!

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book I owned is a very interesting and a spine-chilling one! I enjoyed reading this book. It has short stories as to horrific things that happened to kids. It is very hard to choose which of the short stories in this novel was the one I enjoyed reading the most, because they all were fantastic and were horrific. If you want to read this book, you may want to borrow it from me or probably search it up somewhere. Nevertheless, I would recommend this book to teens because its scary for little kids to read and its not any picture book, but a chapter book with short stories in it.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A *wonderfully* creepy book! I very much believe in ghosts, my mom has seen one before, and these kind of true-story ghost accounts definitely interest me. Even given my biases, though, this book was better then most of it's kind that I've read before. The stories are easy to follow and written for school-aged kids, but real and creepy enough to give me shivers.
