This review is from: Shut Your Mouth (Midnight Library) (Paperback)

Damien Graves is back with three more chilling stories that will make you sleep with one eye open.

Louise is beginning to question her friendship with three of her close friends, since all they want to do is bully everyone they see. Their main victim is Mr. Webster, owner of the ever-popular candy store. They think they can have whatever they want, but when Mr. Webster tells them that they can't have the special candy in the special box, they know they have to have it. Unfortunately, Louise and her friends will witness firsthand how bad candy really is.

It started out as a little chore for Greg and Sam to clean out Greg's grandfather's house, who had just recently passed away. But while cleaning up, the boys stumble upon a specially made game board that outlines what will ultimately decide their fate and what kind of luck they will have.

For Rory and April, their parents getting a brand new car with a GPS system and all the newest technology was the best thing that could ever happen. Yet, one rainy night, when the siblings decide to update the GPS system, everything electric starts to go haywire. All the appliances could have been possessed, or maybe they were just sending Rory and April a message about their new car and a certain system.

These three stories will make anyone pee in their pants, even adults, and are perfect for anyone who doesn't mind a little scare before bed.
