Beware of the Cliff(hanger)! by Deborah Abela

    During the year six sleepover, a few students decide to sneak to the bathroom at night and summon a ghost. It doesn’t work. Or so they think? Just as they decide to go to bed, they see, ‘wrapped in a dark cloak, its face concealed, a figure lift its arms and slowly move towards them'  
    (Ghost Club: The Haunted School by Deborah Abela)
 

When I was young, I loved the cliffhanger… that moment when you reach the end of the chapter and it literally leaves you hanging on a moment, a thought or an action where you just have to know what happens next! Is it a real ghost the kids have seen, or a trick, or a very vivid dream? And what should they do next?
