Publisher's Summary

For fans of Small Spaces and the Goosebumps series by R. L. Stine comes a chilling ghost story based on real Chicago history about a malevolent spirit, an unlucky girl, and a haunting mystery that will tie the two together.

Claire has absolutely no interest in the paranormal. She's a scientist, which is why she can't think of anything worse than having to help out her dad on one of his ghost-themed Chicago bus tours. She thinks she's made it through when she sees a boy with a sad face and dark eyes at the back of the bus. There's something off about his presence, especially because when she checks at the end of the tour...he's gone. 

Claire tries to brush it off, she must be imagining things, letting her dad's ghost stories get the best of her. But then the scratching starts. Voices whisper to her in the dark. The number 396 appears everywhere she turns. And the boy with the dark eyes starts following her. 

Claire is being haunted. The boy from the bus wants something...and Claire needs to find out what before it's too late.

For pre-teen...

This is written for a younger crowd. Like middle school young. I wish I could give this a good rating, but I can’t. The narration is wholly in a panicky over exaggerated voice and it takes away from the story. The description was good and I had high hopes.

Why must all these books for the younger crowd have the most ridiculous parents? And for real? You’re telling me that he quit being a teacher to do tours, and is struggling and neither the father or mother come up with the idea of doing both?

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
