Phantom Fear cover

Two fantastically spooky tales from an award-winning author in one super-value edition.

THE PHANTOM THIEF
The first time Alfie sees the boy, he appears as if from nowhere in the school detention room - the 'padded cell'. That's what his new friend Sarah thinks - and she's so convinced she's prepared to ghost-watch with him. Why does he wear black gloves all the time - even to school?

THE PHANTOM THIEF
The first time Alfie sees the boy, he appears as if from nowhere in the school detention room - the 'padded cell'. There's something odd about him and Alfie is definitely not pleased when he realizes the boy has nicked his new jacket. But a ghost? That's what his new friend Sarah thinks - and she's so convinced she's prepared to ghost-watch with him.

That's when the warning message appears, scratched out on the blackboard by a phantom hand....

MY FRIEND'S A WEREWOLF
Kelly always thought werewolves only existed in stories and late-night films. Until Simon moves in next door. Could that be hair beginning to sprout on his face? Why does he wear black gloves all the time - even to school? Last, but definitely not least, there's the howling at night . . . Aren't werewolves . . . dangerous?
