What's Hide and Shriek About

Publisher Summary

A girl gets caught in a deadly game of hide-and-seek in this first book in the Ghosts of Fear Street series from the master of children’s horror, R.L. Stine–now with a reimagined look! Do you believe in ghosts? Don’t say no until you take a walk down Fear Street. Past the woods, where no birds sing. Past the lake, where something lurks beneath the water. Past the cemetery, where everyone is dying to meet you. New kid in town Randy discovers there’s much more at stake than she thought in the town’s annual after-dark game of hide-and-seek. Turns out, the seeker is the spirit of a long-dead kid from town, and anyone he tags “it” turns into a ghost! Even worse, the spectral seeker has a particular fondness for new kids…
