If you like being scared and really want to feel creepy, you might want to read this book by candlelight with life-size monster mannequins sitting around you for a real chill. If you're ready, let's go to places you never thought you'd go... where the whisper of a spider's web lingers on the back of your neck too long, and the icy fingers of something dead send shivers up your spine that makes your blood run cold.
