About this ebook

Poison Apple Books: Thrilling. Bone-chilling. These books have bite!Casey Slater can’t believe her bad luck. It’s the summer before seventh grade, and instead of the perfect vacation she’d planned with her best friend, Casey is in a remote country town, where her parents are restoring an old, creaky, creepy house. Worst of all, everyone else in town thinks the old house is haunted. And soon Casey thinks so, too -- a vase explodes, a heavy china cabinet falls over on its own -- and it seems like the ghost doesn’t want them there. Casey thought she’d be dying of boredom, but now she’s scared to death!

Ratings and reviews

I absolutely loved it. I have always loved Mimi McCoy's book cause you always want to read more, not stop in the middle and say, " I'm bored!" The First book I read was called Babysitting Wars, and it was just so good. I love Mimi McCoy.

I really like this book. I've read it many times already. I love scary books. This isn't that scary, but still, I love it. I hope Mimi McCoy will make a sequel.

This was a good book for a 9-12 year old, not too scary, very predictable, and entertaining. The only down side was that the book could've been longer, with more detail.
