In re-release, the kids of Spooksville have another adventure,
as Cindy’s younger brother is kidnapped by a ghost. Sally, Adam, and Watch try
to figure out the mystery, but between shark infested waters, a dangerous
lighthouse, and a vengeful ghost, they have their work cut out for them. Will
they be able to discover the history of the ghost and placate it?
I was very averse to reading this book after the first book in
the series, which was more horror than spooky. But this one wasn’t as bad, and
was more of a true ghost story. I like the character development and they
mystery that played out in this book. I recommend this for middle school due to
the hints of romance, and the level of vocabulary and spookiness.
