MYSTERY UNDERGROUND
MICHIGAN MONSTERS
Dive into Terror in the Great Lakes States!

Charles David Clasman and David Anthony, co-authors of over twenty books, present Mystery Underground: Michigan Monsters. Read a scare ... if you dare!

Mystery Underground is a collection of scary short stories for kids, middle grade readers, and everyone who likes a good scare. The stories combine the monsters and mystery of Goosebumps with the surprise endings of The Twilight Zone. They are the perfect scary stories to read in the dark, around the campfire, or under the covers at night with a flashlight.
