Book 1 in the series. Moments after a child on his death bed passes away, he is visited by a mysterious "crooked man" who sends him back to the land of the living. Upon returning, the young boy realizes that his mother was taken in his place, but that's only the beginning of the Crooked Man's sinister plan. Meet Spooky, a dead little boy continuing to grow up. He goes to school, likes taking pictures in cemeteries, and doesn't breathe. Accidentally starting the zombie apocalypse is his biggest fear, but it's not his biggest problem. The Spooky Chronicles is a book series about a child who comes back to life as a zombie but is still getting older. Having already overcome personal tragedy in his life, his unique condition makes him aware of (and draws him into) a secret, paranormal underworld he never asked to be a part of (but still thinks is pretty cool).

Contemporary American horror literature for children and young adults has two bold messages for readers: adults are untrustworthy, unreliable and often dangerous; and the monster always wins (as it must if there is to be a sequel). Examining the young adult horror series and the religious horror series for children (Left Behind: The Kids) for the first time, and tracing the unstoppable monster to Seuss's Cat in the Hat, this book sheds new light on the problematic message produced by the combination of marketing and books for contemporary American young readers.
