Author and illustrator Adam Stower shares his love of scary stories and ghostly goings on ahead of Halloween
AUTHOR and illustrator Adam Stower's new book, Murray the Ghost-hunter starring characters Murray and Bun, is perfect for young readers this Halloween. Here, Adam who also illustrated Little Monsters Rule! by David Walliams tells us all about his love for spooky stories.
Are spooky stories your favourite ones to write?
I have great fun writing all sorts of stories. When I was little I always loved spooky stories. I liked feeling a bit scared to turn the page but not being able to resist doing so to find out what happened next.
I hope Murray the Ghosthunter will give readers that same exciting mix of scares and giggles.
Do you believe in ghosts?
