Description
On a cold, dark night perfect for scaring, the members of Fright Club gather to practice their booing, hissing, and growling. But one monster is acting strange . . . Fran is busy making something, and Vladimir wants to know what it is! Could it be a mask with fangs or a big pink nose? A little rounded bat or a paper butt?
But Rabbit knows what it is--a valentine! Could Fran be in love with someone??
This clever, rollicking read aloud text has delightfully spooky illustrations and an adorable message that even monsters have valentines.

About the contributors
Reviews
-
Long's sense of comic timing is utter perfection. Hysterically plays on kids' stereotyped notions of love, hopefully putting some to rest.
Starred review, Kirkus Review
-
There are lots of laughs to be found in Long's twilit cartoons and the banter among the characters.
Publishers Weekly
-
Long's dark, ghostly palette sets an appropriately eerie mood, and he has a lot of fun with the cuddly animals' reign of terror. . . Don't worry about what goes bump in the night, Long seems to suggest--daylight can be plenty scary, too.
Publishers Weekly on FRIGHT CLUB
-
Long delivers an original story full of droll humor while also introducing the concept of questioning stereotypes and rules. . . Long ably proves that 'when it comes to scaring, the more the merrier.'
Kirkus Reviews on FRIGHT CLUB

Silly but entertaining.
School Library Journal on FRIGHT CLUB

It's a funny Halloween concept that delivers.
