    About this audiobook

    Tricks and treats keep the Halloween spirit alive in coastal Maine. But this year the haunted house theme is getting carried a little too far . . . HAUNTED HOUSE MURDER by LESLIE MEIER Newcomers to Tinker's Cove, Ty and Heather Moon have moved into a dilapidated house reputed to be a haven for ghosts. Now strange noises and flickering lights erupt from the house at all hours and neighborly relations are on edge. And when a local boy goes missing near the house, it's up to Lucy Stone to unravel the mystery of the eccentric couple and their increasingly frightful behavior. DEATH BY HAUNTED HOUSE by LEE HOLLIS For the past two years, the house next door to Hayley Powell has sat abandoned after the owner died under mysterious circumstances. The Salinger family has recently taken possession of the property, but the realtor behind the deal has vanished-after a very public and angry argument with Damien Salinger. If Bar Harbor's newest neighbors are murderers, Hayley will haunt them until they confess. HALLOWED OUT by BARBARA ROSS With its history of hauntings and ghost sightings, Busman's Harbor is the perfect setting for Halloween festivities. But when a reenactment of a Prohibition-era gangster's murder ends with a literal bang and a dead actor from New Jersey, Julia Snowden must identify a killer before she ends up sleeping with the fishes. There's nothing like home sweet home in this trio of Halloween tales . . .

      Narrator was awesome. First Story was wonderful but the next 2 were predictable and drawn out for a short story. Worth the listen if you’re bored.

      HAUNTED HOUSE MURDER by LESLIE MEIER
      Newcomers to Tinker’s Cove, Ty and Heather Moon have moved into a dilapidated house reputed to be a haven for ghosts. Now strange noises and flickering lights erupt from the house at all hours and neighborly relations are on edge. And when a local boy goes missing near the house, it’s up to Lucy Stone to unravel the mystery of the eccentric couple and their increasingly frightful behavior.

      DEATH BY HAUNTED HOUSE by LEE HOLLIS
      For the past two years, the house next door to Hayley Powell has sat abandoned after the owner died under mysterious circumstances. The Salinger family has recently taken possession of the property, but the realtor behind the deal has vanished—after a very public and angry argument with Damien Salinger. If Bar Harbor’s newest neighbors are murderers, Hayley will haunt them until they confess.

      HALLOWED OUT by BARBARA ROSS
      With its history of hauntings and ghost sightings, Busman’s Harbor is the perfect setting for Halloween festivities. But when a reenactment of a Prohibition-era gangster’s murder ends with a literal bang and a dead actor from New Jersey, Julia Snowden must identify a killer before she ends up sleeping with the fishes.

      Going in, I didn't realize this was three separate stories and got super confused at first. Once I figured out what was going on, I was able to fully enjoy each novella.

      Haunted House Murder is a entertaining fall read that is perfect for the Halloween season. Featuring three of my favorite cozy authors, this book brings three haunting tales of mystery for the reader to enjoy. Meier does a great job at creating an enjoyable story featuring Lucy Stone. I always love reading this series especially the holiday stories because I always enjoy reading about the characters in Tinker's Cove. Meier does a great job at creating an entertaining story despite the short length. The story captures the reader's interest from the beginning and never lets go. Hollis also does a great job at creating a haunting tale that fits in perfectly with the overall book theme of haunted houses. I really enjoyed the characters in the story although I have to admit I am not sure how Hayley can put up with her husband, Danny, and his antics. I can see why she is divorced later in the series. I did however like getting a glimpse of her earlier life though. "Hallowed Out" was my favorite story in the book though. I just love this series more and more each story I read. The story definitely fit in perfectly with the book's theme and provided a enjoyable story. I always enjoy visiting these characters and Busman's Harbor. Overall Haunted House Murder was a great fall read that I would most definitely recommend.Received a copy of Haunted House Murder through NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.

      Haunted House Murder contains three entertaining Halloween themed cozy mysteries that are all set in Maine. They are well-written and engaging with developed characters. You can read one or all three. They can be read as standalone for those unfamiliar with the series. Death by Haunted House takes readers back to October 29, 2009 with Hayley Powell and her family. I do not know how Hayley put up with her husband, Danny. He is more of a child than her kids, but Danny was certainly entertaining. Lucy Stone is busy with work plus taking care of her house, hubby and daughter who is still at home. Then she agrees to watch Patrick. Lucy finds it challenging to keep up with a child under ten who goes to soccer and has homework. I could relate when she was trying to teach Patrick fractions (my father sat with me for hours trying to teach me). Julia gets roped into helping with a reenactment and finds herself in the middle of a real gunfire. When not looking for the killer, she is curious about the unusual problem at her mother’s house. She refuses to believe a ghost has suddenly appeared. I enjoyed all three cozy mysteries with the haunted house theme. They put me in the mood for Halloween which is such a fun time of year with the decorations and costumes. There are recipes included as well. Be prepared for a hauntingly good time with our three female sleuths in Haunted House Murder.

      Haunted House Murder by Leslie Meier is a “Golly gee” kind of story. Just a little too local and homespun and “Oh gosh” with not much mystery. Death By Haunted House by Lee Hollis is set in Bar Harbor, Maine and the story is tenanted by the most annoying characters who behavior falls over the line of ridiculous. None are likable and few are believable and while the story had potential, nope, not for me.Hallowed Out by Barbara Ross is by far the most well thought out and best written of the three. The story was interesting, plausible but the ending was disappointing.Thank you NetGalley and Kensington Books

      I picked up this terrific collection of three Halloween stories because Leslie Meier is one of my favorite cozy authors. I've read all of her books and, while I enjoyed her story in this collection, sleuth Lucy Stone seemed to be out of sorts and not her usual self.I've never read anything by Lee Hollis but, after reading her interesting story, I'll probably track down her books.The final story, by Barbara Ross, was probably the best of the lot and I plan to look for, and soon read, her Maine Clambake books, starting with Clammed Up. Overall, this was an excellent holiday collection.(I received a copy of this book from the publisher, via Net Galley, in exchange for a fair and honest review.)
