Frankenkids

The Nightmare Club #5

by Annie Graves

Welcome to the Nightmare Club, the sleepover that is definitely not for wimps. Annie Graves is your host, and she only invites guests who can tell really creepy stories.
You’ve heard of Dr Frankenstein, right? Freaky guy who cobbled together a MONSTER out of bits of people – spare parts, you might say. Well, he’s got nothing on Uncle Fraser, who’s a real live mad scientist.
Meet Fraser’s creations in Frankenkids – but don’t come snivelling to Annie if you’re sorry you ever opened this book … You’ve been warned!

[The Book Hub at Cabra Library · Rating 4 out of 5]

Part of spooky series of part-illustrated short stories (think 'Are you afraid of the dark'..). The size and illustrations make these books very accessible to readers of all ages and abilities-would recommend for younger readers who like a scare!

Don’t even bother showing up for a famous Annie Graves slumber party unless you are prepared to share a truly terrifying tale. A story so horrifying that sleep will be made impossible for your fellow party goers. A mysterious stranger tells a tale of his twisted uncle who was inspired by the work of Dr. Frankenstein.

These quick reads should be shared in darkness with only a flashlight and a creepy sinister voice. Although the books are numbered the haunting yet humorous story-lines appear to be independent from one another and do not need to be enjoyed sequentially.

Short, silly fun.

A story about a bunch of kids and their crazy mad scientist uncle. The ending is something I expected but not exactly how it ended. Was good.
