Lila's Haunted House Party — Francine Pascal

Jessica and Elizabeth Wakefield are ready for spine-tingling chills when they go to Lila Fowler's big Halloween party at Hathway Manor. When they arrive, skeletons pop out of trapdoors, witches cackle over their bubbling brew, and candy eyeballs are served as snacks.
