From the Back Cover:

'Time for more terror... A new short story collection, following on from R L Stine's hugely successful NIGHTMARE HOUR.'

'Some stories are too terrifying to tell,' says RL Stine. "They are the ones that live in the darkest corners of my mind. The ones that give me chills in the dead of night. The ones that I must tell you now – or they will haunt me forever...'

Read the terrifying story of a babysitter who loves evil tricks... the chilling tale of a boy who dared to lie down in an ancient mummy case... the frightful story of two boys dying to have the scariest Halloween ever...

When the lights fade, the world that we know as real slips into shadow – and the cold, moonlit world of the Haunting Hour is upon us!
