Ghouls Just Want to Have Fun (Calamity Jayne Mystery, #3) by Kathleen Bacus

WHAT DO YOU CALL A BLONDE SKELETON IN THE CLOSET?

LAST YEAR'S HIDE 'N' SEEK CHAMP

It's autumn in the heartland, when football rules and homecoming royalty reigns--and full moons don't just mean a passing high school varsity bus. But this year, Tressa Jayne Turner can't seem to get into the 'spirit' of the season. Our intrepid young reporter is trying to recover from a ten day run at the State Fair. After being stalked by a psycho dunk-tank clown, all she wants is a slower pace, some candy corn, popcorn balls, and caramel apples--and a serious story she can sniff out on her own.

And guess what. She's in luck! Eccentric and reclusive bestselling writer Elizabeth Courtney Howard is coming to little ol' Grandville to conduct some family business and finish her latest book. So, what's stopping Tressa from getting the goods on the mysterious mystery author--besides a blackmailing six-foot-two-inch homecoming queen candidate with all the charm of Frankenstien in taffeta, a rival reporter out to scoop the competition, a seance-hosting roommate who happens to be her grandmother, and a Natural Resources Ranger-type who could make a nun reconsider her vows? Only the fact that the skeletons to uncover are all in a closet in Haunted Holloway Hall--a house only Norman Bates could love.
