Mo would be the first to admit he's a bit of a scaredy cat.

But when Mo tries to prove that he can be brave, things take a chilling turn . . .
Now Blue Bessie is awake and ready to play, and she's taken Mo's brother as her prize. It's down to Mo and his friends to win her game and bring him home. But there's more than just bones in Bessie's creepy crypts. . . Will the Shiver Squad ever find their way out? Or will they be lost in the dark forever?
