The Puppets Payback and Other Chilling Tales

De: Mary Downing Hahn

Narrado por: Nick Mondelli, Renee Dorian

This collection of tales is for fans of ghost-story writer Mary Downing Hahn’s scary but not too scary books. Even the stories without actual ghosts are spooky. Each tale turns something ordinary - a pigeon, a white dress, a stranger on the bus, a puppet - into a sinister link to the supernatural. For the human characters, secrets from the past or careless behavior in the present can lead to serious trouble.

All the stories have a young person as their central character, so all will resonate easily with young listeners who enjoy the eerie, the creepy, and the otherworldly. In a concluding note, the author talks about how she came to write ghost stories.

Classic Mary Downing!

I’ve loved Mary Downing since first reading Wait til Helen comes as a child. These stories are creepy and fun. Perfect for my 11 and 5 year old around the campfire.
