Publisher Description

What if the monsters from your favorite horror books were real?

Eddie Fennicks has always been a loner, content to lose himself in a mystery novel by his favorite author, Nathaniel Olmstead. That’s why moving to the small town of Gatesweed becomes a dream come true when Eddie discovers that Olmstead lived there before mysteriously disappearing thirteen years ago. Even better, Eddie finds a handwritten, never-before-seen Nathaniel Olmstead book printed in code and befriends Harris, who’s as much an Olmsteady as he is. But then the frightening creatures of Olmstead’s books begin to show up in real life, and Eddie’s dream turns into a nightmare. Eddie, Harris, and their new friend, Maggie, must break Olmstead’s code, banish all gremlins and monster lake-dogs from the town of Gatesweed, and solve the mystery of the missing author, all before Eddie’s mom finishes
writing her own tale of terror and brings to life the scariest creature of all.

maryrosemiller ,

I have had this book for a long time

I love this book so much but it’s hard for me to read it and everywhere I look I can find an audiobook for it. I have hddhd and it’s hard for me to read a book. This book is my favorite

(Contains Spoilers)

This is defiantly my favorite book by Dan Poblocki, so far!! Also the author, Nathaniel Olmsted and most of his books are mentioned in many of his other books meaning that these creatures have all been released in other parts of the world with the special pen. Anyway Fantastic book
