You're invited to the party at a haunted mansion! As a wild assortment of
creepy beasts and ghoulies argue over who is the scariest, a contest begins
to determine the winner. The bumbling monsters turn out to be not as horrific
as they thought, as evident by the interactive surprise ending that will
delight young readers.
