13th Street School, actually an elementary school, middle school, and high school, is located at the corner of 13th Street and Waiting Place. You might call it a magnet school, but instead of attracting the gifted and talented, it draws the creepy and warped.

VOYA

An ominous fog shrouds the elementary, middle, and high schools located at 13th Street and Waiting Place. Some of the students experience a premonition of evil as they pass through the doors. Evil lurks within the schools' walls and outlying areas. Disappearing students and faculty are abducted by aliens, eaten by giant snails, or murdered during the school year-all in cartoonish, modern, urban legend style. The main characters in this collection of creepy vignettes are siblings Brian, Albert, and Aileen, newcomers to the schools. They do not last long as Albert and Aileen soon vanish into the computer lab, unwilling victims of an alien outreach program called "NoKids." The objective of "NoKids" is to transform human children into computers. Brian is last seen driving toward a light in the woods. Other students meet violent demises. One is crushed by a truck and another is murdered, her body dumped in a vacant lot. The ghost of the school librarian takes her revenge on murderous troublemakers by pushing them out of windows. Animals are tortured and killed yet return to avenge their deaths. This book is disjointed. Some of the stories stand alone, others do not. There are no characters to care about and several of the stories have loose ends. However, readers of scary stories probably will not care. The vignettes are short, evil, and twisted. Chapter titles are often amusing-"The Chill-dren," "Student Bodies," "Extinguished Educators," and others. Brown is the author of Queen of the Cold-Blooded Tales (August House, 1993/VOYA April 1994), which circulates well from my library. This book is aimed at a younger audience and has a mix of evil and humor that middle schoolers will enjoy. VOYA Codes: 2Q 3P M J (Better editing or work by the author might have warranted a 3Q, Will appeal with pushing, Middle School-defined as grades 6 to 8 and Junior High-defined as grades 7 to 9).
