The Horror High annual handball competition is a fight to the death - even if you’re already dead...

It's the annual handball competition at Horror High. The court is marked out in fresh blood and powdered teeth, and every student with their brain sewn in the right way is furiously perfecting their most devious death-plays. The heat is definitely on.

Tony Bones-Jones is the molten hot favourite, but an unidentified masked assailant has come roaring up through the ranks. The Bonester isn't worried. He's dispatched the best Horror High could throw at him, and sent them limping off the court weeping like onion-chopping old women. But this masked opponent is different - it's as if he can anticipate Tony's every move. Is there some devilry at work here?

Two champions, two destinies… Revenge will be sweet.

Imagine a school made up of every kind of ghoul you can imagine, from zombies to werewolves, vampires to grim reapers - that’s Horror High!

Praise for Horror High 4: The Feral Peril

The Feral Peril is Book Four in this charged comic horror series. It's as fast and slick as an iPod disappearing under a desk when a teacher approaches. Yes, that fast … Paul Stafford is terrific with his word play and his depictions of characters and actions are suitably gruesome. More gross than scary, Horror High is aimed at boys, many who will pick up the witty double entendres … Great fun.
