“Oh, don’t be such a scaredy-cat”
Morgan Carey
THE CURSE OF THE CORPSE BRIDE
Dia de los Muertos Myths & Legends by Susan Colleen Browne
Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) Myths and legends...
Halloween is just around the corner, and 5th grader Morgan chooses the coolest costume ever—a dead bride. Preparing for a fun night of trick-or-treating with her best friend Claire, she definitely did not expect a trip to the costume store to set off a series of strange encounters… Like the snarky, mysterious clerk at the store, a very curious bridal veil, and a weird fortune-telling machine that actually works…when it’s not plugged in!
But Halloween quickly takes a spooky turn: a Day of the Dead curse, an old book of magical spells, and a dark and deserted cemetery forces Morgan, with Claire’s help, to confront the powerful magic of Dia de los Muertos...Or is Morgan doomed to be cursed by the Corpse Bride forever? A family-friendly Halloween adventure - humor, drama and just the right touch of scariness!
