What to expect
Don’t look behind you. Resist with all your power. He’ll go away, perhaps, as long as you don’t look.
Arthur Bannister is back for another term at Shiverton Hall, where eerie events are unfolding. First, a burned stranger shows up in the middle of the night uttering dire warnings. Then a young boy disappears, leaving behind only an ancient book as a clue. And then there’s that dreadful feeling Arthur has that he’s being watched . . .
Full of spine-chilling tales and deliciously creepy characters, this second story from Shiverton Hall is enough to make you leave the lights on at night.
Critics Review
-
A gripping, creepy story . . . not for the faint-hearted!
Praise for SHIVERTON HALL, Primary Times
-
This spooky boarding school tale, with shades of the Harry Potter series, is ideal for readers at upper primary level who enjoy all things gruesome and grisly. Debut author Emerald Fennell creates a genuinely spine-tingling and suspenseful atmosphere throughout . . . An exciting story which will appeal to those who enjoy Chris Priestley and Derek Landy
