The first in a spine-tingling middle-grade adventure series that's Goosebumps meets Stranger Things following three friends who discover that the eerie urban legends they've been obsessively collecting may not be just make-believe . . .

Emrys Houtman knows something isn't quite right in the town of New Rotterdam, although no one talks about it--certainly not the grown-ups. The sky is always overcast, and urban legends abound of mysterious disappearances, cursed objects, and strange creatures wandering the coastal fog.

While bonding with Hazel and Serena, his new neighbors and fellow horror fans, Emrys documents the town's creepypastas, spooky legends, and cryptid sightings in a Wiki. It's all in the spirit of good fun . . . until one day, the trio stumble upon the Doomsday Archives, a mysterious collection of relics that reveal something is very, very rotten in New Rotterdam.

To their horror, the kids discover that while they've been busy hunting for monsters, the monsters are now hunting them back. Emrys, Hazel, and Serena must stop the terrors plaguing their town, or risk losing their home--and possibly their lives.
