Took, Mary Downing Hahn. Daniel and Erica are forced to leave their home in Connecticut for Brewster's Hill, Massachusetts because their dad lost his job. They move into a beaten down old farm house with no neighbors or friends near by. The school kids do not welcome them, except to tell them scary stories about the old witch, called Old Auntie and her pet, Bloody Bones, that "took" a girl 50 years ago. Now, they say, it is time for a new girl. Erica begins to grow reclusive and talks to her doll more and more, causing concern. Daniel gets worried when Erica disappears and knows she has been "took." He must find Old Auntie himself, confront her in the deep dark woods and save his sister.

Mary Downing Hahn is the queen of scare and this book will not disappoint her fans. This is her latest ghost story sure to keep readers pinned to their seat.
