Personal Review: All the Lovely Bad Ones by Mary Downing
Hahn

Printed on the cover is "A Ghost Story." It is - complete with creaking
floors, blood-curdling screams, and dark groves of trees. ALL THE
LOVELY BAD ONES is your typical haunted house tale.
Sent to spend the summer with their grandmother, Travis and his sister,
Corey, are in for the scare of their lives. As soon as they learn that the
Vermont inn owned by their grandmother is haunted, Travis and Corey are
thrilled to be there. Unfortunately, Grandmother has other thoughts. She
really isn't interested in playing up the haunted angle to her guest, but
Travis thinks that would be just the ticket to increase business.
Travis and Corey have a plan. They will use some costumes, a little make-
up, and a blue flashlight to make just the right combination of sights and
sounds to stir up some interest in the old inn. When word gets around that
the long-dormant ghosts of Fox Hill Inn are active again, business will be
booming. However, it was not part of the plan that the kids' antics would
actually encourage the real ghosts to make a return of a very real kind.
Readers of Mary Downing Hahn's latest mystery are in for a treat. The
ghosts in this story are not ready to settle down until some of the wrongs of
the past are righted. Until that happens, the inhabitants of the old inn are
victims of mysterious wild rampages that destroy their rooms and
possessions, vicious physical assaults, and endless taunts and threats.
Life at the inn will not be peaceful until the spirits of the past are appeased.
ALL THE LOVELY BAD ONES is an excellent addition to any mystery
collection. It is especially perfect for middle grade readers looking for a
quick read and a good scare.
