4-6Scary Places series.
After brief introductions, two-page spreads focus on specific haunted sites; each volume contains a map highlighting the locations. Horror-loving readers will find ample material for sleepovers or campfires in the clear text, but the design--featuring photographs, illustrations, and text boxes atop blurry, eerie backgrounds--is busy and strains for spooky effect. Reading list. Bib., glos., ind. Review covers these Scary Places titles: Haunted Caves and Dark Mansions.
