Illustrated by David Huyck
One strange and peculiar night …
A flighty girl hopped on a broom, ready to trick-or-treat. But when she crossed paths with a most unusual woman … the trick was on her!
On that same night, two brave superheroes returned home tired but victorious – only to find their biggest foe waiting … in the bathtub!
On that very same night, four fiendish friends set out to terrorize the neighbourhood – until a real fang gang took a bite out of their fun!
Oh, yes, it was … That One Spooky Night!

“These quick, cute, gentle, snappy, and sassy holiday comics are a great transitional read for those moving out of Babymouse territory into something a little more sophisticated yet still safe.”
Booklist, October 15, 2012
“Dan Bar-el … continues to cleverly twist classic tropes to create something witty and unexpected.”
Canadian Children’s Book News, Winter 2013
“Huyck illustrates the rapidly paced action in classic comic-book style, making sure to skillfully depict every shock, scare and look of relief. A good choice for readers new to the format and those looking for a quick hit of Halloween silliness.”
