"If thy words be too luxuriant, confine them, lest they confine thee. He that thinks he can never speak enough, may easily speak too much. A full tongue and an empty brain are seldom parted."

| |  | | | In Brief
This is a collection of stories about the paranormal. "A cocky young graffiti vandal runs afoul of a strange museum caretaker; a girl accustomed tostealing from the old ladies she works with finds one prize not worth its price; and the devil proves less than a match for an inveterate young liar." (Bull Cent Child Books) "Grades five to eight." (SLJ)
| | | | From The Publisher
Redwall fans will love the ghostly side of Brian Jacques!
Filled with humor, adventure, and imagination, these seven short stories go from the lighthearted to the bizarre. From a teenager who drives a museum curator to mummify him for signing Phantom Snake (an anagram of his name) all over his exhibits, to a boy who's dared to visit the tomb of a vampire at midnight only to discover that the vampire boy he meets has a mother who nags just like his own, the eerie and chilling settings and characters will captivate readers.
"Well crafted and smoothly written...While suitable for reading aloud, the tales are even better under the covers with a flashlight." --Booklist, starred review
"Brian Jacques, author of the Redwall books, proves to have a surprising gift for amusing, sometimes horrifying, sometimes quite poignant ghost stories....An excellent choice for reading aloud." --The Horn Book
| | | | Annotation
Chills--and even a few laughs--abound in these stories of ghosts, vampires, and spooky things that creep around in the dark. Seven heart-stopping tales "for reading under the cover with a flashlight" (Booklist, starred review) from the author of the Redwall trilogy.
