EVERY HALLOWEEN, THE HOUSE LIGHTS UP.
EVERY YEAR, THE TOWN PRETENDS NOTHING HAPPENED.
For more than fifty years, the abandoned house at the end of October Street has remained empty.
But every Halloween, something impossible happens.
At exactly 11:47 p.m., every window glows with golden light. Thirteen minutes later, the house goes dark again.
Nobody knows why.
And nobody wants to talk about it.
Eleven-year-old Wren Ellis has never been one to accept an unanswered question. When she spots a mysterious girl in a pale blue coat standing behind an upstairs window, Wren knows there’s more to the old Vale House than ghost stories and creaking floorboards.
Together with her friends Nia, Felix, and Ollie, Wren begins investigating a mystery that has haunted their small town for generations.
Their search uncovers a forgotten storm, seven mysterious lanterns, an old bell tower, and the story of Addie Vale—a girl blamed for something nobody ever bothered to understand.
But some secrets refuse to stay buried.
As clocks begin striking thirteen and strange messages appear, the children discover that the greatest danger isn’t necessarily what lives inside the house.
Sometimes, it’s what happens when an entire town chooses to forget the truth.
Can four determined friends uncover what really happened before the thirteenth bell rings again?
The House at the End of October is a mysterious, heartwarming, and delightfully spooky children’s adventure about friendship, courage, compassion, and the importance of standing up for the truth.
Perfect for young readers who enjoy haunted houses, Halloween mysteries, unexpected twists, and unforgettable adventures.
