Review by Horn Book Review

This series explores high-interest topics engagingly (if superficially). Each double-page spread features an actual "scary place," with paragraphs of history and some examples of spooky happenings. Photos, computer-manipulated images, and cheesy graphics illustrate the texts. Accessible language and sensationalized content will keep these books from growing dusty on library shelves. Reading list. Bib., glos., ind. [Review covers these Scary Places titles: Creepy Castles, Ghost Towns, Haunted Hotels, Haunted Houses, and Spooky Cemeteries.] (c) Copyright 2010.
