It was our last session of #GameZero book club andy had ask for more books by the fabulous @edgechristopher. I brought a copy of his new book but when reading the blurb, look what they spotted on the bottom of the book! They can't wait to drive into this adventure now! 👀📚

Rode out of spooky season with these 2 crackers. 👻
Very different scares, but both terrific reading.
A ghostly, supernatural punch in the guts from @Hickesy, and a frantic chase from a sinister entity by @edgechristopher, have seen me right.
Nice one, lads! 👍

There's nothing quite like a scary story on #Halloween 👻
But it turns out that horror fiction could have real benefits for young readers.
Here, Fear Files author @edgechristopher explains why 👇
