Publisher Description

Brendan has always been fascinated by the low-budget horror films of Bud Preston.

Imagine his surprise when he moves to a new town and discovers a high school classmate is the daughter of his favorite director.

Melissa Preston’s home contains exciting secrets about such strange films as THE STONE STAIRWAY and THE DUNGEON OF COUNT VERLOCK.

But Brendan’s film-fan obsessions threaten to undermine his new friendship...before he can truly understand what it means to spend LIFE IN A HAUNTED HOUSE.

For the first time, this special edition collects the full novel and all four tie-in novelettes that retell the stories of four of Bud Preston's cult-classic films:

- Who can escape THE DUNGEON OF COUNT VERLOCK?

- What strange ritual will summon THE LAKE MONSTER?

- What warning signs signal an invasion by THE SPACE VISITOR?

- Who will solve the horror-noir mystery of THE TWISTED FACE?

Each of the tie-in stories are accompanied by Lynne Hansen's recreations of the magazine covers where they originally appeared.
