Book Description

New middle-grade horror from the award-winning author of the Haunted Canada series! When the hit television show Screamers announces a contest for young fans to appear on an upcoming episode, it's all kids can talk about. So when Sai, Jason, and Aaliyah, strangers from different parts of the country, are selected from the thousands of applicants, they can't believe their luck. They pack their bags and travel to Winnipeg, excited to work with Zoë Winter, the show's biggest star! Zoë is famous, respected, and making more money than she ever thought she would . . . and she's not even in high school yet! But money doesn't buy happiness, and Zoë longs for a normal life with normal friends, which is why she's just as excited about the contest as the three lucky winners. But little does she know that her life is about to imitate her art while filming the latest episode on location. The creepy set, an abandoned amusement park called Pennyland, is haunted by a real ghost straight out of their worst nightmares: the park's original mascot, Beauregard, an old clown with smeared makeup and threadbare clothes. Beauregard isn't willing to accept that Pennyland closed years ago, and he's determined to stage one final show for his captive young audience . . . Zoë's talent for screaming is going to be put to good use. Sai, Jason and Aaliyah are going to prove themselves quick studies. And their visit to Pennyland is going to be anything but amusing.

Book Description

*Includes "The House on Ashley Avenue," currently in development as a NETFLIX FEATURE FILM! There are haunted places in the world, all existing in reality and every bit as tangible and accessible as the house next door. Sometimes it is the house next door. In this brilliant debut collection, Ian Rogers explores the border-places between our world and the dark reaches of the supernatural. A mysterious double murder draws the attention of an insurance company with a special interest in the paranormal. A honeymoon cabin with an unspeakable appetite finally meets its match. A suburban home is transformed into the hunting ground for a new breed of spider. A nightmarish jazz club at the crossroads of reality plays host to those who can break a deal with the devil...for a price. With remarkable deftness, Rogers draws together the deadly and the disturbing in twenty-two showcase stories that will guide you through terrain at once familiar and startlingly fresh. Blurbs: "Ian is a fantastic storyteller of horror. He has an ability to create a unique reading experience with great scares and memorable characters. I knew the moment I finished reading Every House Is Haunted that Ian was someone I wanted to work with." - Sam Raimi, Director of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness "...the 22 stories in Rogers's debut collection demonstrate the author's talent for finding the terrifying in the seemingly ordinary... This work of classic horror in the style of Shirley Jackson, Richard Matheson, and early Stephen King should attract fans of a more refined kind of horror." - Library Journal "...Rogers offers some real gems. Every House Is Haunted is a harbinger of great things to come." - San Francisco Book Review IAN ROGERS is an award-winning author whose short fiction has appeared in Tor.com, Cemetery Dance, Broken Pencil, and Shadows & Tall Trees. His work has been selected for The Best Horror of the Year and Imaginarium: The Best Canadian Speculative Writing. For more information, visit www.ian-rogers.com..
