Fright Bite (Dread Wood, Book 5)
The brand new must-read middle-grade novel from the author of super-spooky Crater Lake. Perfect for 9+ fans of R.L.Stine's Goosebumps and Stranger Things.
It's Colette's birthday and the friends are spending an evening at Neon Perch - an epic entertainment spot where they can eat pizza, play mini golf and - best of all - take part in Project Z - an epic new escape room experience. It's going to be the best night ever!
Or is it . . . ?
Somehow, the escape room somehow seems to know each player's greatest fears. And worst of all, there are creatures locked up with them. Creatures from their darkest nightmares . . . giant, poisonous RATS!
"Deliciously scary and hilarious comedy-horror, perfectly pitched for eight-plus."
