When middle schooler Kelly Ferguson’s Halloween plans switch from party-going to babysitting, she thinks the scariest part of her night will be the death of her social life. But then the baby she is tending gets kidnapped by the Boogeyman’s minions and Kelly has to find him before his parents get home.
This is the author’s first book of a new series about a secret society of babysitters who protect kids from the monsters that really do live under their beds and in their closets. For those kids who like Fablehaven and Goosebumps, this will be a fun new series of scary stories. I think the reading level is probably grades 4-7. Do not read if you have a tendency towards nightmares!
