At first Doug doesn't believe the rumors about bloodthirsty creatures who are said to have left a trail of amputated victims across the northern woods. Then, he and his younger sister find signs of a mysterious presence in the land behind their home. They are about to meet the Beasties, a "family" of beings with war on their minds – war against the human race! Acclaimed science fiction/fantasy author William Sleator has created a fast-paced treat just right for middle-grade Goosebumps fans.

"This gleefully icky horror show may well leave readers with some soul-searching questions... that resonate long after the cover is closed." – Publishers Weekly

"William Sleator is one of my favorite young adult writers." – R.L. Stine
