I enjoyed Archives of the Unexplained: Unwanted Guests much more than the first volume. It still had the informative quality, but it felt more fun and entertaining. I think this story was more of what I was expecting where true ghost stories were told in a kid friendly way. It is something I would have enjoyed as a preteen and enjoyed now. The idea that the house the family moved into was haunted and the family dealing with that while hearing other ghost stories was interesting. I loved hearing about the house with the blood because I had never heard that story before. I highly recommend this collection to preteens interested in the paranormal.

This was really interesting! Great read about the history behind some haunted house stories. Will be a good complementary recommendation for customers looking for something similar to goosebumps since spooky graphic novel books are increasingly popular.. Can't wait for more in the series.

"Archives of the Unexplained: Unwanted Guests" is the second book in the middle grade graphic novel series written by Steve Foxe and illustrated by Naomi Franquiz. The series introduces kids to unexplained and mysterious paranormal stories from history. In this volume, a family has moved into a new house that has some creepy noises and a gross stain on the wall. The two kids run into another kid on the playground who tells them about other unexplained paranormal stories from history. Contains historical sources at the end of the book. A fun and creepy graphic novel that can be read as part of a series or on its own. A suggested purchase for middle grade graphic novel collections where paranormal and creepy books are popular.

Creepy, middle school graphic novel that tells some spooky tales, with just the right amount of chills!
