Bookroo's summary

Ricky Beamer's prank on the school paper's editor backfires, unleashing a wave of bizarre phone calls. Instead of targeting his bossy rival, Ricky finds himself contacted by mysterious kids claiming to be creeps. These aren't ordinary bullies—they have scaly purple skin and sharp fangs. As the calls grow more frequent, Ricky must unravel the mystery before these creatures come knocking. Will he find a way to stop the madness, or will his joke turn into a nightmare he can't escape? Dive into a chilling adventure where a simple prank spirals into a terrifying ordeal.

From the publisher

In an attempt to get back at the bossy editor-in-chief of the school paper, ex-staff member Ricky Beamer plays a prank that backfires and results in him getting phone calls from local bullies who are really lizards in disguise. Original.
