About This Book
A cold whisper brushes past your ear, and the flicker of shadows dances in the corner of your eye. Strange shapes appear in mirrors, computers, and even classrooms, blurring the line between friend and fright. What happens when ghosts from the past and spirits from the future come calling? The chill is just the beginning.

Quick Assessment
Spooked is a collection of thirty-three short horror stories aimed at middle-grade readers aged 9-12. The tales explore supernatural themes including ghosts, spirits, and eerie happenings in everyday settings. While the stories are thrilling and suspenseful, some may be intense or unsettling for sensitive readers, so parental guidance is suggested for younger or easily frightened children.
