Description
A six-book series of supernatural horror scares that will hook even the most reluctant readers. The Dark Hunter Mr Blood and his young assistants Edgar and Mary take on a series of terrifying mysteries, dealing with ghosts, vampires, werewolves and even weirder threats. In this tale, Mary and Edgar must confront a demonic terror from their forgotten childhood.
Highly readable, exciting books that take the struggle out of reading, Dark Hunter encourages and supports reading practice by providing gripping, age-appropriate stories for struggling and reluctant readers or those with English as an additional language aged 11+, at a manageable length (64 pages) and reading level (7+). Produced in association with reading experts at CatchUp, a charity which aims to address underachievement caused by literacy and numeracy difficulties.

An edge-of-the seat horror story set in the past... With short, well-spaced sentences and dark illustrations this is a nail-biting treat for dyslexics and book-reluctant teens.

The black and white illustrations match the sinister tone of the stories brilliantly. These...stories are gripping and will be highly motivating and confidence-building for reluctant readers.
