Haunted Kids (also known as Haunted Kids: True Ghost Stories) is a series of true ghost story children's books written by Allan Zullo and Bruce Nash, (creators of Haunted Lives: True Ghost Stories.) Unlike many anthology ghost story books at the time, these stories are all non-fiction and based on real cases. The true stories all involve children who have had encounters with the supernatural. As the series grew in popularity, the books began to focus on other true ghost stories, involving animals, sports, etc. The series was enormously popular, publishing millions of copies and eleven initial volumes between 1993 and 1997.

Overview

Starting in the 2000s, the series was republished by Scholastic. The first volume in the series has since been released on audiobook in 2006, narrated by John Ratzenberger. The series spawned several spin-offs, all involving haunted locations, written by Allan Zullo. A boxed set was released in 2008, containing six volumes from the book series and a skull pendant.
