Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

When being the new kid at school is the LEAST of your problems...Cecilia "Sissy" Wardwell thought starting 8th grade at a new school and making new friends would be her biggest challenge of her life. She was wrong.Dead wrong.When her family moves into a new house, Sissy discovers an antique hairpin tucked away in an old jewelry box up in the attic - a family heirloom with a chilling secret. The moment she puts it on, shadows come alive, and the dead make themselves known. What would YOU do if you could suddenly see ghosts?Sissy's new "gift" turns her world upside down just as she's trying to fit in at Calderon Middle School and make friends with Albany (the goth ninja) and Marlow (a band geek).The last thing she needs is a house full of spirits. But when Sissy wears the hairpin to a Halloween party, a nightmare breaks loose. Invisible forces wreak havoc, sending people running and destroying everything in sight. Sissy must choose between hiding her supernatural abilities or embracing the paranormal to save her classmates.Maybe some family heirlooms are better left buried.Funny, fast-paced, and genuinely creepy, Death of the Party launches the Hair-Raiser series by Thomas Kingsley Troupe - a perfect pick for middle grade readers who want their horror served with a generous side of humor.
