Synopsis: Greetings to all with a penchant for the darker things in life. Settle down and prepare yourself for a twisty, tricksy, cautionary tale of troublesome terror as we follow a dastardly dozen of trick-or-treaters on a night of Halloween hell! Be warned: this nuisance bunch of roustabouts (including a rusty robot, a kooky clown, and a malodorous merman) is armed with an arsenal of devious tricks such as flour bombs, rotten eggs, water pistols, and more. The turbulent twelve are out to collect, taking no prisoners . . . that is, until they ring the door at number twelve and things take a turn for the worse. Woe betide them . . . woe betide them all! At Death’s Door: A Picture Book for Grown-Ups is a macabre delight for both the young and old. Author and illustrator Ben Joel Price (Love Bites) brings together a gruesome hoard of children who are out for a little trick or treat fun--but who get much more than they bargained for. Fans of horror films and graphic novels will enjoy this grisly Halloween picture book. It’s the perfect read for a spooky Halloween evening and a great gift for that sick and twisted friend.
