By Bill Doyle, Scott Altman (Illustrator)
Two kids take a job at a haunted house, facing bizarre creatures and unexpected dangers.
Keats and Henry need cash fast after losing their bikes. A simple job at Hallway House seems perfect—until they encounter a shark-headed zombie, giant bookworms, and a toe-biting carpet. As the house reveals its monstrous secrets, the boys must navigate a series of bizarre challenges. Can they survive the chaos and earn their pay, or will the house's mysteries prove too much? Dive into a world where every corner holds a new surprise, and nothing is as it seems. Will they conquer the madness or become part of it?
New to the Random House list is author Bill Doyle with a tale of monsters, magic, and mayhem. After Keats and Henry lose their bikes, they need money–fast. So the help-wanted ad at the supermarket seems ideal for them. All they have to do is weed Hallway House’s garden, find some lightbulbs in the attic, sweep the garage . . . and battle a shark-headed zombie. But no one told them about the giant bookworms in the library, the toe-biting carpet in the halls, and the kitchen sinkhole!
