Fear The Funhouse #1 – Archie Comic Publications gets in the holiday spirit with an anthology of spooky tales. Pre-teen Archie and his friends are spending the night camping in their treehouse in the woods. The group decides to do what any kid their age would do in this situation: tell scary stories! But each story grows creepier and creepier as the kids realize that maybe there is some truth to these tall tales. This one-shot issue will appeal to fans of Are You Afraid of the Dark? and Goosebumps.

Prunella And The Cursed Skull Ring GN – First Second releases a sweet and gently macabre graphic novel from the creator of The Time Museum. Prunella doesn’t give much mind to the whispers around her village about monsters lurking outside the gates. But when she unearths a strange skull-shaped ring in her garden and puts it on, she’s transformed into a skeleton girl! With the monster-fearing town terrified, Prunella is exiled. She wanders the wilderness and discovers that monsters aren’t as bad as she’s been led to believe. Befriending an undead pirate Captain Rip Skeleton and Francis, a floating, fiery skull, Prunella is ready to find a way to reverse the curse, but, does she really want to? Young readers will enjoy this title’s fast-paced adventure and quirky characters.
