Thirteen-year-old Jessamine Grace and her mother make a living as sham spiritualists-until they discover that Jess is a mesmerist and that she really can talk to the dead. She knows that the memories she’s blocking will help make sense of her brother’s behavior and the strange and threatening sensations she feels in this house, but will she be able to put the pieces together in time? The Mesmerist by Ronald L. The whole atmosphere gives Harper a sense of déjà vu, but she can’t remember why. Harper isn’t sure she believes those rumors, until her younger brother, Michael, starts acting strangely. Harper doesn’t trust her new home from the moment she steps inside, and the rumors are that the Raine family’s new house is haunted. This list, originally published on the “Kids Are All Right” Book Riot newsletter on October 1 (sign up here for the weekly emails), is perfect for anyone wanting to get in the mood for Halloween. Middle grade books, aimed for readers eight to twelve years old, have had a run on perfectly creepy books for readers that like to be terrified.
