4-6Cold Whispers II series.
Illustrated by
Tom Connell.
These not-too-scary hi-lo horror stories rely on setting to create a chilling atmosphere with a mystery twist. The stories are mildly entertaining, and all are resolved with happy endings. The illustrators' styles vary in quality, but all tend toward a generic comic-book look. "What Do You Think?" questions are appended. Glos. Review covers these Cold Whispers II titles: Doomed on Death Row, Fright at the Freemont Library, Terror in the Underground Tunnel, and The Vampire's Lair.
