The Vampire Doll — Kat Shepherd

“Fans of Goosebumps and the updated Baby-Sitters' Club graphic novels will find lots to like in this delightfully monstrous mash-up.” -- School Library Journal on Babysitting Nightmares: The Shadow Hand

Anchored by a strong friendship between smart, savvy girls, Kat Shepherd's Babysitting Nightmares: The Vampire Doll is the fourth in a fun adventure series filled with “safe scary” jump scares that will appeal to contemporary readers as well as fans of mysteries.

Tanya has always been the unflappably cool and collected one in her friend group. So when she begins babysitting for her neighbor's great-niece, she's surprised to find herself super freaked out by the doll collection in the house. They're just toys right?

But when her babysitting charge becomes a little too attached to the doll, Tanya realizes the doll might be the incarnation of a supernatural threat Tanya and her friends have faced before.

There are a handful of black-and-white illustrations by Rayanne Vieira for the key spine-tingling moments.
