Storytellers know -- just as they have for hundreds and hundreds of years -- that everyone enjoys a good, scary story! Alvin Schwartz's Scary Stories 3 joins his other popular collections of scary folklore, Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark and More Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark, to give readers spooky, funny and fantastic tales guaranteed to raise goose bumps. Who is the Wolf girl? Why is a hearse filled with men with yellow glowing eyes? Can a nightmare become reality? How do you avoid an appointment with Death? Stephen Gammell's splendidly creepy drawings perfectly capture the mood of more than two dozens scary stories -- and even a scary song -- all just right for reading along or for telling aloud in the dark... A poltergeist that specializes in unscrewing bottle-caps...a couple who bring home a strange-looking little dog from Mexico, only to be told that it's a sewer rat...suddenly vanishing friends, relatives, and animals...a Texas girl raised by wolves- -yes, it's a new collection of horribilia: chillers, ghost stories, and urban legends, retold in an appropriately matter-of- fact way and illustrated by a master of the macabre. Schwartz gives most of the tales a modern setting, provides hints for storytellers, discusses variants, and--as in two previous collections--appends careful source notes and a good-sized bibliography. Gammell supplies a characteristic array of leering faces, slimy bones, and scrofulous, unidentifiable creatures. Perfect for reading alone or aloud in a dimly lit room. You first.

Why hadn't they listened? What were they trying to prove?' She shook the thoughts from her head. A tear escaped the corner of her eye and she wiped it away. As soon as they realized Elyse had the key to the front door, her friends wanted it. They begged for it! So she took them in the middle of the day. Just like they wanted. She turned the key in the lock and shoved the door open. Just like they wanted. And as they stepped inside, the house seemed to swallow them in darkness. Elyse watched until the very last one was gone, then she closed the door, and left them to the house. Just like they wanted. ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK! For kids 8 and up.

These stories, written in the tradition of Roald Dahl, will leave you convinced you were there right alongside the characters; riding Sheila the dragon over the North Pole to save the narwhal, and listening to their songs of praise. Poet/artist Edi Holley gives her characters endearing (and quirky) human traits and dialogue which will capture our most basic human emotions and needs, especially love.
