When Andy and his cousin Marnie visit HorrorLand and Andy takes home a tooth that can grant wishes and came from a dog with evil powers, at first they are thrilled about the wishes, but then things start going wrong. - ScholasticTwelve-year-olds Andy and Marnie had an awesome week in HorrorLand-despite their freaky encounter with Murder the Clown and the zombie mob. Then they think they've won big when they get a FREE souvenir from HorrorLand's Chiller House-and they're not so worried that the shopkeeper said they'd have to "pay later." Or that the hound's tooth is rumored to be haunted. It's totally worth the risk to have a tooth that grants wishes. But when Andy hears howling at night and Marnie starts acting strange, they begin to rethink the gift from HorrorLand.
Unlucky book #13 kicks off an entirely new type of terror that will keep you guessing and quaking until book #19.
Each eerie adventure of the next seven-book arc begins with a trip to the Chiller House, a gift shop only found in HorrorLand. Kids are invited to take a little horror home with them and given a souvenir and a miniature Horror. At home, the kids experience wild things with their "free" gift, while the glowing, menacing Horror keeps an eye on the fun. When it's time for their payment, the Horror takes them back to shopkeeper Jonathan Chiller.
- ScholasticTake a little Horror home with you!In HorrorLand's eerie gift shop Andy finds a hound's-tooth necklace. The big tooth is yellow, has two sharp points, and, according to the shopkeeper, is said to grant wishes. But Jonathan Chiller knows something else about the tooth. It's said to be haunted by the ghost of a huge hound. A ghost that's got a mouthful of sharp teeth--but wants this one back.
