"An amusing, just-scary-enough graphic novel for young genre fans and perhaps even those hesitant to try spookier fare."—School Library Journal

"Fearing's sketchy, full-color cartoon artwork nicely balances the horror of monsters, portals, and ghosts with a kid-friendly style that tones down the scares just enough. . . . A perfect choice for kids who love anything by R. L. Stine, this will thrill kids who like to get a little scared."—Booklist

"Thrill-seeking readers will be eager to visit."Kirkus Reviews
