The second entry in the slightly
scary, extremely addictive contemporary middle-grade series from New
York Times bestselling authors Lisi Harrison and Daniel Kraus—perfect

preteens, like Ann M. Martin’s The Babysitters Club.
It’s been a month since the events of 1-2-3-4, I Declare a Thumb War,
when the Graveyard Girls—Gemma, Whisper, Sophie, Frannie, and Zuzu—discovered
Silas Hoke’s empty grave. A month, and no answers. That changes when messages
from the other side start to creep up on the Graveyard Girls. Gemma’s good-luck
charm. The skull in Whisper’s spilled milk. Sophie’s vanishing phone. Frannie’s
theater curse. And Zuzu’s possessed Jōurnal. Who is trying to reach them . . .
and why?
The good news: There might be one person with some answers. The bad news: She’s
a mortician . . . with a deadly secret.
Speaking of bad news, straight-A Sophie is quickly sliding down the scale to
becoming a B-flat friend. She is spending way more time
hanging out with “Danger Me” and way less time with the
Graveyard Girls and her schoolwork. Will her scary story be enough to win back
her pals, or will her picture-perfect life become the ultimate photo bomb?
Fans of author Lisi Harrison’s Monster High books will enjoy this new entry
in the Graveyard Girls series of mystery books for kids. Anyone looking for
scary books for 10-year-old girls will find exactly what they need in this
thrilling sequel to 1-2-3-4, I Declare a Thumb War.

Graveyard Girls: Scream for the Camera
By Lisi Harrison and Daniel Kraus
Excerpt
Zuzu pressed a finger against her temple and squeezed her eyes shut.
“Are you okay?”
“Yeah, totally.” Zuzu sat. “Where were we?” she asked the screen of her laptop.
“You were trying to upload the recording from the G-Tone—”
Zuzu waved her hand in front of Gemma’s face. “Yeah, got it.” She tapped the keyboard for a few more minutes and then leaned back in her seat. “Done!”
Relief washed over Gemma like sound waves in a singing-bowl meditation. “Play it!”
They clutched each other as a sinister hiss began crackling through the laptop’s speaker. Static slithered out like rattlesnakes and snapped like old bones.
“What is that?” Gemma muttered. “Shhh. I hear a voice!”
Gemma’s heartbeat quickened. Sweat bloomed across her forehead. This is really happening! “Turn it up!”
Zuzu clicked a button and the voice came in louder.
It was distant. Male.
Most of the words were garbled, but what the girls could make out sounded like “Well to . . . be burn . . . I take you or . . .”
“Or what?” Gemma’s sweaty forehead went cold. Her spine stiffened. It was Silas Hoke. It had to be. They’d made the recording in the prison, on the hundredth anniversary of Hoke being fried in the electric chair.
“It sounds like he’s saying, ‘I take you or . . . death!’” Zuzu’s rouged cheeks turned pigeon gray.
Gemma nodded. “Play it again.”
Zuzu did. The girls held their breath as they strained to listen.
“The voice is talking about being burned,” Gemma said. “It has to be from Silas Hoke’s soul during his execution. And now he’s going to take us to our deaths!”
“Not again, he’s not!” Zuzu cried.
Her fist came down with such force that the hamsa hand shot off the desk and crash-landed on the floor. Glass scattered everywhere.
