The bestselling Youโ€™re Invited to a Creepover middle grade series comes to graphic novels with this third book about a birthday sleepover gone horribly wrong.

Birthday girl and queen of all things creepy, Kelly Garcia, is all set to have the perfect night. Her parents are going out of town, and with just a babysitter, Kellyโ€™s practically on her own. Itโ€™s the ideal time for a virtual webcam sleepover where she and her friends can scare each other silly by telling ghost stories and summoning the spirit of Miss Mary, a woman from their small town who died tragically a long time ago.

But when her friends start disappearing one by one and the babysitter is nowhere to be found, Kelly starts getting scared for real. Is Kelly next to face the ghostโ€™s wrath?

Creepy full-colour graphic panels tell the story with the same horror as the original novel! This chilling tale is a level 5 on the Creep-o-Meter.

About the Author

A lifelong night owl, P.J. Night often works furiously into the wee hours of the morning, writing down spooky tales and dreaming up new stories of the supernatural and otherworldly. Although P.J.โ€™s whereabouts are unknown at this time, we suspect the author lives in a drafty, old mansion where the floorboards creak when no one is there and the flickering candlelight creates shadows that creep along the walls. We truly wish we could tell you more, but weโ€™ve been sworn to keep P.J.โ€™s identity a secretโ€ฆand itโ€™s a secret we will take to our graves!
