When the dead come back to haunt the living, Lockwood & Co. step in . . .

For more than fifty years, the country has been affected by a horrifying epidemic of ghosts. A number of Psychic Investigations Agencies have sprung up to destroy the dangerous apparitions.

Lucy Carlyle, a talented young agent, arrives in London hoping for a notable career. Instead she finds herself joining the smallest, most ramshackle agency in the city, run by the charismatic Anthony Lockwood. When one of their cases goes horribly wrong, Lockwood & Co. have one last chance of redemption. Unfortunately this involves spending the night in one of the most haunted houses in England, and trying to escape alive.

Set in a city stalked by spectres, The Screaming Staircase is the first in a chilling new series full of suspense, humour and truly terrifying ghosts. Your nights will never be the same again . . .

Lucy Carlyle has two special Talents: she can hear the voices of the dead and she can experience memories of the dead by touching belongings they once owned. Normally she puts her Talent to use for an organization that investigates paranormal phenomena, but when a tragic incident leaves her jobless, she wanders into the office of Lockwood & Co. hoping to find work. There she teams up with Anthony Lockwood and George Cubbins to tackle solving the mystery behind one of the most notoriously

This YA spooky series was a surprise for me! I enjoyed the book more than I thought I would.The writing was well done, the plot was complex and the scary moments were fantastic. I really enjoyed the world building that Jonathan Stroud has produced with the hauntings, how to destroy them and the type of world the characters live in because of this ghostly issue, aka "The Problem".The Problem is the epidemic of hauntings currently affecting Britain and how only young children and teenagers can

well this was totally freaking spooky and scary 👻 Ghost hunting, mansion hauntings, screaming staircases, murder and a trio of best friends? This book really does have it all. All the Good Stuff Of the first few hauntings I investigated with Lockwood & Co. I intend to say little, in part to protect the identity of the victims, in part because of the gruesome nature of the incidents, but mainly because, in a variety of ingenious ways, we succeeded in messing them all up. I'm shocked you

Literally how does anyone not believe ghosts are real after reading this book? 👻👻 I feel like I'm being forced to confront the reality that I'm being observed by some otherworldly separate physical entities and I dont know where that leaves me other than terror! But also, I cant wait until my psychic abilities blossomI just must be surrounded by ghosts all the time, thats the only explanation why Im always so cold physically and in my heart and why my hands and feet are always freezing even when

3 StarsOverview: ^ Basically my entire feelings about this book. I can appreciate it, but something about it didnt click. I just dont think it was for me. I liked it. I just didnt love it. Buddy Read with the lovely Frankie! Who enjoyed this much more than I did! Pros: Theres some super cool worldbuilding. Its ghosts mixed with science and somehow it works. This is set in a London where the world is almost over-run with paranormal activity, and children are the only ones able to detect them.

Im sick of historical fiction. Im sick of contemporary fiction. Im sick of realism and science fiction. Fantasy I watch with a wary eye. I dont always feel this way but when Ive read seven depressing meaningful middle grade books for kids in a row the old noggin screams for something enjoyable for once. And to place into this mental desert a book like The Screaming Staircase ... well, its the best possible cure for what ails ye. A pleasure from tip to tail, this is the book you hand the advanced

I mostly requested this because I'd heard good things about it, and boy am I glad I did. This book is awesome!I think that this is a children's book (middle grade maybe?) but don't let that put you off. This book is ridiculously well written, reading with the flair and complexity of only the best books (ever) and I freaking loved it.This book is creepy and a little bit scary, set in a terrifying alternate world where ghosts have taken over the night and have the power to kill. When only the
