Publisher's summary

Every town has a history. Ours is just a little darker than most.

For years, I've celebrated Halloween and Hollow Bridge's history with everyone else who lives here. Parades, festivals, and insane Halloween parties have always been a staple for us. Some bad behavior is expected, given what we're celebrating. But murder has never been on the table before.

Someone in Hollow Bridge wants to bring the stories to life, and they're not firing any warning shots. When rumors of someone wearing a Halloween mask surface, it isn't long before the first person is killed.

No one is safe, and when I end up with a serial killer kneeling over me and a knife at my throat, I expect to be the next victim of the Hollow Bridge killer. I don't expect him to speak to me from behind the garish mask he wears.

"Who should be the next to die, Bailey?"

Inexplicably, he lets me go. But I'll never be safe from him—because he wants more from me than just a name.

Don't Be Scared is a full-length MMF standalone for anyone looking for a dark Halloween tale. Intended for mature listeners.

My go-to Halloween book

I have certain books for certain times of the year, and this one has officially made it to my Halloween list. It does not have your typical setting or your typical FMC, but it had just the right amount of nods to the horror genre, a Halloween obsessed town to set the mood, wonderful relations between characters, and one of the best revenge stories that I actually can say "well done!"

Great audio of an amazing book

I typically prefer dual or duet style narration but Alyssa did an absolutely phenomenal job narrating this audiobook. The way she voiced the male voices was so well done. This book is a bit of a slower build. It added to the feel of the book and I think the slower build up was a perfect choice for this. I have loved all of the books I have read by AJ Merlin and highly recommend them.
