The House Next Door

Celebrated cofounder of We Need Diverse Books and APALA Honoree Ellen Oh delivers another spooky story in the vein of Spirit Hunters, about hero Rory and the creepy house next door. Filled with angry spirits, mysterious noises, and malevolent forces, the house has tormented many souls. When new neighbor Jack and his family move in, Rory must do everything he can to prevent them from becoming its next victims.



Rory Parker knows not to step foot in, on, or around the house next door. He’s seen things creeping in the shadows, has had encounters with spirits, and lost a best friend to the house’s malevolence. But when his new neighbors, Jack and his family, move into the house next door, Rory makes it his duty to protect them at all costs.



But the evil forces lying within the house are plotting something sinister, something that puts Jack’s little sister in extreme danger. Soon, Rory understands he’ll need the help of Jack and some friendly ghosts in order to stand a chance at defeating the evil that lurks within the walls for good. But what exactly lives in the house next door, and will Rory and Jack find out in time to save the day, or can its evil never be evicted?
