      The Halloween Children are watching-they're always watching in this chilling novel of suburban horror from Norman Prentiss and Brian James Freeman...The accommodations at Stillbrook Apartments aren't exactly glamorous, but they're quiet, affordable, and well-maintained. The handyman is usually available to help with a leak or a broken bulb, his wife and two adorable kids often tagging along. When occasion dictates, the neighbors gather to wish each other well and spread the requisite holiday cheer. Everything's very nice. Very normal.But as Halloween approaches, strange occurrences are happening all around Stillbrook. The children tell disturbing stories, bizarre noises bleed through the walls, and one abandoned unit is found to be inhabited by something sinister-something that's no longer alive.For the safety of the tenants, the Halloween party has been canceled. There will be no decorations or masks, no candied apples or witch's brew. But without treats to divert the Halloween Children, they have no choice but to play some very nasty tricks.
