Paperback. A compilation of eleven original campfire stories for ten- to fifteen-year-olds. Kids will get a thrill out of listening to these stories of ghosts, devils and creatures of the night. Most of the stories are in scouting settings and feature Boy Scouts, but could easily be adapted to an audience of non-scouts for re-telling. The stories: The Ghost of Wildcat Mountain - Farming on the edge of the wilderness comes with special perils. The Shade - Two boys decide to take on whatever is behind the curse that seems to leave each generation of the Hendrickson family with only one heir. Stargazing Under a Full Moon - A story for those who like their hamburger rare. The Curse of the Indian Mound - Strange things happen in the night when a troop camps at a newly developed camp property. The Creature in the Ravine - Legend tells of a creature that lives in the ravine at Camp Indian Trails. The new scout patrol goes on a monster hunt in the snow. The Fog on the Lake - a stranger makes a boy an offer that seems too good to be true when his troop camps at Devil's Lake State Park. The Church Basement - Not every soul in the graveyard is resting in peace. The Demon Troop - Two boys camp with a different scout troop when they can't go with their own group. There turns out to be more to the Demon Patrol of Troop 966 than meets the eye. The Ghost of Eckelberry School - At a scout camp where the buildings are all old one-room schoolhouses, one school stands apart from the others, unused. When two boys see a light in Eckelberry school late at night, they decide to investigate. The Missing Bugler - Native American rituals lead a scout into a new world. How Gordie Came to Castle Rock - A tent has been destroyed, a boy is missing, and the only person who seems to know what's going on is a young Ojibwe who is teaching Indian Lore at the camp. What went on before the current ranger came to Camp Castle Rock? This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.…
