Alex was a bit different than other kids, they didn't want to hang out with the boy into horror gore and writing creepy stories. He loved scary stuff so much that his parents turned their house into a haunted house. But when no one shows up, Alex becomes upset, and decides to sneak out one night to throw away all his scary stories. On his way to the incinerator, Alex is stopped by the sound of a tv playing his favorite horror movie, he soon finds himself trapped by a witch in her enchanted apartment. Finding out that he is a writer, the witch lets Alex live if he reads her one of his scary stories every night. But when his stories are ripped to shreds, being left with only one more story, he realizes the stories aren't coming to him as naturally as they used when he has to write more. Joined by a young girl named Yazmin that was also trapped there by the witch, they try to form a plan to escape their captor and go back home.
I can't begin to tell you how much I love this book! I also really loved the movie just had to put that out there. 😅 I didn't know it was a book first, so I just had to get it. While there are loads of differences, the movie is still pretty great.
Pros: So well written!
Cons: couldn't really find many cons in this one!
Recommended to: Thos who love a good fantasy with a witch involved.
