Gather together the classic heroes and villains of Victorian literature. Throw in Lovecraft's Old Gods. Mix in a mysterious game with the fate of the world as the prize. Now tell the tale from a dog's point of view. It's not heavy reading, but it's absolutely wonderful.

This is one of my favorite books! I reread it at least once every October and continue to enjoy it.

Short and cute. A story about Halloween told from the point-of-view of Jack the Ripper's dog. Features a lot of classic horror characters (Dracula, Wolfman, a witch, and so on) all engaging in an elaborate game that will come to a climax on Halloween.
