About this listen

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The #1 bestselling author of The Island is back with another pulse-pounding, twisty listen!

Haunted by the past . . . terrified of the present.


Penny knows she must forget about her ex, Nash. Ever since his father was revealed as the brutal serial killer who traumatized their small town last Halloween, Penny’s parents have forbidden her to have anything to do with Nash or his family. It’s hard not to think of him—but she’s trying.

That stops when she goes shopping with friends for a costume. What she finds instead is ripped from a horror movie: someone from school bleeding out on the floor of a dressing room. Stabbed.

People are quick to blame Nash and his sister, Grace, but as Halloween nears and the body count rises, Penny can’t help thinking this copycat killer is someone no one else suspects. . . .

storyline and title

I thought the storyline kept me very engaged. the title definitely made me think it was going to be paranormal of some sort. I kinda thought it was gonna be this whole dream or memory Of the main girl (forgot her name 🙃) and she was the ultimate killer but it definitely didn't turn out the way.

Not about a haunting at all

The name of this story is rather odd considering there was no paranormal activity of any kind. The plot was so-so and it was pretty easy to guess who was the killer early on. Especially if you read true crime often. I found the narrator to be a frustrating, selfish teen so it was hard for me to get into the book because her reaction to every incident was annoying. The ending … I mean it’s a cliff hanger but also an odd way to end it. Overall, Not a book I’d recommend.

Reminds me of Scream

I thought this was so good. It reminds me a lot of the scream franchise which I enjoy. I can’t decide if I love or hate the cliffhanger knowing there’s no second book.

Scream in book form

Excellent teenage novel for horror film junkies. Recommend greatly for YA suspense and mystery lovers. Great book for introducing your teen to reading.

Amazing twist I didn't see coming !!!

Not exactly what I expected from the title, but that's why they say don't just a book for it's cover, right. 😉 Once this book started i couldn't stop listening. I was overly anxious to get back to the car and start driving to be able to listen more. Nothing gave away the most shocking twist I have ever had, this book will keep you guessing right until the end, and let's face it maybe even longer!!!!
