Description

Written by some of today’s most exciting teen authors, Vacations from Hell offers five unique takes on a universal experience—unforgettable trips.

This third Hell collection features stories of vacations that take a serious turn for the worse when paranormal elements interfere.

Claudia Gray’s teen witch falls for the wrong guy on her family’s yearly beach trip,

Cassandra Clare’s heroine confronts a vengeful and powerful woman while taking in the Jamaican sun.

The cruise ship in Sarah Mlynowski’s story carries some dead, soon-to-be-dead, and even some un-dead passengers aboard.

Libba Bray takes us to a town in Eastern Europe with a dark and bloody past.

And a paranoid madness born in the French Revolution reaches across time to turn sister against sister in Maureen Johnson’s tale.
