The Northern Frights
Illustrated by Scott M. Fischer.
Charles Nukid and his friends — including new student Lattie, a tough ninja girl — take on their biggest challenge yet in this frighteningly funny addition to the Scary School series. When they’re chosen to attend Scream Academy as exchange students, they’ll have to face:
- Rolf Meltington — the principal of Scream Academy and an abominable snowman
- Polter-bears — part poltergeist, part polar bear... totally frightening
- The Headless Horseman — don’t lose your head in his class
But there’s something even scarier than going to school with yetis, ogres, and trolls: the Ice Dragon. As an ancient prophecy comes to pass, Charles finds himself destined to battle this monstrous creature in order to save both Scream Academy and Scary School from destruction.
