After one of her photos shows a shadowy figure, Isabella Rodriguez learns that Hollywood Hills, California, is haunted. Now the ghost in the photo won't leave Isa alone. She's trying to communicate with Isa . . . but what does she want?
Isabella Rodriguez is thrilled that she and her sister get to spend a week with their aunt in sunny Los Angeles, California. A budding photographer, Isa keeps her camera at the ready to capture all the iconic sights--especially those of the historic Hollywood neighborhood where her aunt lives. After one of Isa's photos shows a mysterious shadowy figure, she learns that Hollywood Hills is haunted. Now the ghost in the photo won't leave Isa alone. She's trying to communicate with Isa . . . but what does she want? Every state has its own spine-tingling stories of ghosts and mysterious hauntings grounded in its regional history. The Haunted States of America series uses real-life ghost lore as jumping-off points to new, chilling tales. An author's note provides historical origins and fascinating facts, but beware: sometimes real life is stranger than fiction.

Thomas Kingsley Troupe has been making up stories ever since he was in short pants. As an "adult," he's the author of a whole lot of books for kids. When he's not writing, he enjoys movies, biking, taking naps, and hunting ghosts as a member of the Twin Cities Paranormal Society. Raised in "Nordeast" Minneapolis, he now lives in Woodbury, Minnesota with his awe-inspiring family. Maggie Ivy is a freelance illustrator and artist who lives and works in the Ozark area in Arkansas. She found her love for art at an early age and pursued it with passion. She graduated from The Florence Academy of Art in 2010. She loves narrative elements and story-building moments, and seeks to implement them in her own work.
