Synopsis

A mysterious cat causes chaos in the tenth book in New York Times bestselling author Christopher Pike’s Spooksville series.

Adam and his friends are exploring the area around Spooksville when they come across a black cat. It seems friendly: it purrs when they rub its back, and licks its paws like any other cat. But then it follows them back to town, and strange things begin to happen. A tree falls down, and a house catches fire. Each time something bad happens, the cat is there—watching, with its strange green eyes. And it won’t go away.

Adam and his friends don’t know what to do. Especially when the fearsome feline begins to use its powers on them!

A tree falls down, a porch ca......more

Mientras los demás niños de mi generación leían Pesadillas yo leía Fantasville!! Encontrar libros de esta colección en mercadillos o tiendas de segunda mano siempre es una alegría para mí porque puedo volver a las aventurillas de miedo de mi infancia. Qué majos son los cuatro niños del pueblo, qué r......more

Me produce cierta nostalgia leer este tipo de libros, ya que gracias a este género comenzó mi amor por la lectura. El segundo tomo que leo de la colección de Fantasville y la verdad este hasta el momento es mi favorito. Una temática muy parecida a R.L. Stine, Christopher Pike crea esa misma atmósfer......more

Goodreads review by Ana Ibarra on April 13, 2023

Stuff starts happening from the beginning which for a short story is actually really good, it keeps it interesting in every page. I like how it continues to have the same 4 friends and each new adventure has some either town history or a random real life fact, I don't know, maybe it helps to keep it......more
