In the eerie halls of the Haunted Mansion, four daring kids, the Fearsome Foursome, challenge each other with spine-chilling stories. But when Amicus Arcane, the mysterious Ghost Host, shares his own haunting tales, they discover the true meaning of fear.

Enter if you dare, and uncover the chilling mysteries that await within these haunted walls.

From the publisher

Welcome, foolish mortals, to the spookiest chapter book series yet: Tales from the Haunted Mansion! Based on the attractions from the Disney Parks, each new book tells the story of one of the Haunted Mansion’s 999 ghosts. With eerie illustrations throughout and a beautiful three-piece cloth cover, the books are designed to look like they came straight from the library in the Haunted Mansion. Tales from the Haunted Mansion is a fun, spooky ride, just like the attraction from the Disney Parks. And if readers are familiar with the ride, they’ll see elements of it throughout the entire story, from items straight of the Mansion (are those pictures stretching?) to lyrics from the narration that is heard in each Doom Buggy.In this bone-chilling book, you will hear the terrifying tales of the Fearsome Foursome–four kids who look to out-scare each other. But just wait until they hear my spooky stories. Who am I? I am Amicus Arcane, your librarian and host. Your Ghost Host. So read on… if you dare!
