All Hallows' Eve: 13 Stories (2006) Vivian Vande Velde (Author)
On Halloween, anything can happen when the ghosts, spirits, ghouls, vampires, and other creatures roam about; these 13 stories reveal some of the antics of these supernatural beings. In "Cemetery Field Trip" a young girl lured into a mausoleum by the sound of a crying baby is assisted by the ghostly inhabitants of the coffins before her attacker can strike her. In "I Want to Thank You" a witch seeks refuge in a home and winds up entombed; "When My Parents Come to Visit" finds a young boy dreading Halloween as his deceased parents always come to visit and always argue and fade away; and in "Come In and Rest a Spell" one will find the not-too-kind granny. The twists and turns from spectral beings make this book perfect reading for Halloween night.
