Twelve-year-old Joey Tonelli is a Halloween fanatic, so when his best friends, Kevin and Barry, tell him a few days before the spooky holiday that they are too old for trick-or-treating, he is devastated. Desperate to get his two killjoy friends into the Halloween spirit, he dares them to go inside that scary abandoned house on Creep Street--the house all the kids in town think is haunted. Well, the kids in town are right: the house really is haunted--by the malevolent ghost of Bob Smah, a young boy who died many years before under mysterious circumstances. Reborn as an angry spirit, Bob is determined to destroy anyone who sets foot in his home. Despite the horror that Bob unleashes upon the Fright Friends, they become determined to help free the dead boy's trapped spirit. Will the Fright Friends successfully free Bob Smah from the house on Creep Street, or will they end up as ghosts themselves? Find out for yourself when it all goes down on Halloween night.

A Fun Halloween Adventure for young and old
What made the experience of listening to The House on Creep Street the most enjoyable?
It brought back old memories of my days as a child on Halloween. Great fun! They really captured the experience. Also, it's written at the adult level with solid characters, and believable dialog. I thought it was completely appropriate for an adult as well as children.
What was one of the most memorable moments of The House on Creep Street?
I think the action scene at the end. I was surprised how scared I was for the main characters.

When the kids first walk into the house. Seriously creepy!

Any additional comments?
There are so many things that this book did right. Let me try and touch on a few by name
Horrific Nods
One of my favorite things about this book is its subtle and awesome reference to horror things. For example, the boys go to Mary Shelley Middle School. Or a street nearby is Bradburywhich I can only assume is a reference to Ray Bradbury, one of my favorite writers of all time. So, gold star to the Blood Brothers for starting kids off right. Hehe.
Characterization
Secondly, I applaud the characterization in the story. At first we meet these three friends, Barry, Joey, and Kevin. Theyre all different, with different appearances and characterization. And theyre all battling their own issues. Barry is heavier than most kids his age, hes self-conscious about it, thrives off of being a peacekeeper of the group, but when faced with a choice, hell probably side with Kevin (the cool one). Kevin is the piece of the threesome whos discovering girls and that hes kind of the cool one of the group. Hes always wearing his lucky blue cap. Joey, of course, is my favorite. Hes a true-blue purveyor of Halloween.
