Spirit Hunters

Harper's family has just moved to a new town in a new to them but really old house.  Harper immediately notices a strange feeling and cool temperatures in her little brother's room, but she shrugs it off amid all the unpacking.

Strange things have happened to Harper in the past.  She has recently recovered from injuries she got in a mental health facility, but she can't remember how she got those injuries.

Her little brother's imaginary friend is taking up more of his time and energy, and Harper misses the Michael who used to be full of life and laughter.

There are rumors the house is haunted, but Harper doesn't want to believe it despite all the evidence in front of her.  Once she realizes the true danger she and her brother are in, she knows she will have to do something.

The more she investigates, the more she remembers about her past trauma.  Will Harper be able to save her little brother and herself, or will they fall victim to the evil spirits in her house?

Ellen Oh's new book is a fairly typical horror story with the twist that Harper's family has Korean ancestry.  Kids will love it for the chills, and the diversity factor definitely bumps it up in my estimation.
