Six Feet Under

My life was dedicated to finding this book that scared the motherfucking shit out of me when I was little. For the life of me I couldn't remember what the hell it was called though, then as I sat down to watch the bachelor about five minutes ago, it came to me, Scared Stiff. I used to be a little page master in my day, reading and visiting the library as often as I could. One day when I visited the friends of the library store I found this book for only ten cents, it looked interesting so I bought it, big mistake. My god I literally could not sleep for days! I was about eight when I read it and the cover said the book was targeted for my age, but I soon realized that might have been someone's sick joke. Don't let the cute cover fool you this children's novel involves death, zombies, brutality, and murder. Well, read the back cover for yourself:
Living in a funeral home can be a riot . . . until a body comes alive one night. Kelly and Chace are determined to stop the vengeful bag of bones from terrorizing their town. But how do you stop something that's already dead?
It's out of print now, but you can find it on amazon and ebay literally for pennies. I suggest you have a read. I'll never forget this book, this is the sole reason in which I have irrational fears of butchers, zombies, and windows with no curtains. And for god sake never sit with you back facing a large window ever!
