Bookroo's summary
Bradley, Brian, Nate, and Lucy are excited for Halloween at the haunted Shangri-la Hotel. But when kids enter and don't come back out, the fun turns to fear. Are ghosts and ogres more than just stories? As they delve into the mystery, the young sleuths must uncover the truth behind the spooky disappearances. Can they solve the puzzle before it's too late, or will they become part of the legend themselves? Dive into this chilling adventure where nothing is as it seems, and every shadow hides a secret.

Carve out family time for this Halloween read starring the younger siblings of the A to Z Mysteries kids! October is for Ogre… In the tenth book of the Calendar Mysteries - an early chapter book mystery series - there’s a haunted house in Green Lawn! It’s Halloween, and the Shangri-la Hotel has been transformed into a haunted house, complete with an ogre out front. Bradley, Brian, Nate, and Lucy are ready for some scary fun, but then they notice that none of the kids who have gone in the hotel have come back out. What’s happening to them? Ghosts and witches and ogres aren’t real . . . right?
