Nick, Carter, and Angelo are obsessed with all things monster. Every year at Halloween, they get to show off their knowledge with elaborate homemade costumes. Only this year, a surprise trip to the house of an aunt who may have been a voodoo queen throws a major wrench in the boys' plans. Nick discovers a cursed amulet that turns him into a real monster—a zombie—and to him and his friends, that is . . . awesome! At first.

But when the whole zombie thing gets a little out of hand (literally), the boys must go on a chilling quest to reverse the curse. A quest that involves a talking cat, a skeleton who likes candy corn, and even the dreaded Zombie King himself.

With irreverent humor, light chills, a mysterious narrator, and three unforgettable best friends, Case File 13 is the perfect series for anyone with a thirst for adventure and a wish to know what goes bump in the night. . . .
