About this ebook

Michael was the youngest in his family, just eight years old, and loved to watch his favorite TV show called Dark Shadows. Michael's older brother David and his sister Susan would constantly sneak up while Michael was watching Dark Shadows in the dark and scare him. Even though his brother and sister did a good job scaring him, what scared Michael the most was the vampire Barnabas Collins. At night when Michael would get under the covers he would shake like a leaf and slowly pull the covers over his head. Michael's bedroom didn't have a door which scared the living daylights out of him.

One stormy night when Michael was lying in bed trying to sleep, he saw a black cat walk across his window just as the lightning lit up the sky. Michael would jump out of bed and run down the hall to his parent’s room to sleep in their bed until morning. Michael's parents would tell him to stop watching Dark Shadows and maybe his fear of sleeping in his bed alone would diminish.

Michael said, "I wouldn't be so scared if my brother and sister would stop teasing me. Now and then I would pull the covers slowly down below my eyes just enough to turn my head and see my brother walk across my doorway dressed in a cape and tell me he was coming to get me soon. I would just pull the covers over my head and shake like a leaf and pray for daylight."

The next night as Michael was lying in bed the caped figure went passed his bedroom doorway and the figure said, "Soon, very soon, you will join the dead."

Michael said, "That's it!" and jumped out of bed in terror and ran down the hall yelling for his parents. Michael burst into his parents’ bedroom and dove into the covers shaking like a leaf.

Michael's father said, "What's the matter? Michael."

Michael replied, "He's back and this time he said I would be joining the dead soon."

I have my thoughts on how Little Micheal could have died. But if I told you it would ruin the end of your book 📖. I would like to say that The young child no longer has to be afraid of 5he darkness anymore. on the other hand his brother and sister won't be sleeping 😴 with the lights off 📴 for a very long time. they also won't be joking about someone dying as well because I believe that this tragedy is something they will think about for a while as they each think about the last thing they said to their brother. Michael's fear just became their nightmare.

After reading the first book, I was really looking forward to this book and now I know why Michael was afraid of the dark. Adults and teenagers will enjoy this book but a parent should read before letting a child who is already afraid of the dark read it.

Doesn't deserve a full star. This sucked! Reads like a toddler wrote it.
