Melon Head Mayhem - (Killer Vhs) by Alex Ebenstein (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

The 1st book in the Killer VHS Series, hailed as "the modern-day Goosebumps for Adults" by Horror Obsessive.

After cousins Carson and Sophia find an old unfamiliar VHS tape tucked away in their grandma's house, they figure the worst that can happen is a few cringeworthy moments and ninety minues wasted. Instead, the video summons the movie monsters--local urban legends called melon heads--into their very real lives!

The destruction caused by the blood-thirsty melon heads has Carson and Sophia fighting to survive and sets them on a deadly path to the shores of Lake Michigan, home of the devilish beasts. They vow to destory every last one of the melon heads and make sure these monsters never get a sequel.

"A fun, pulse pounding love letter to urban legends and dusty VHS tapes..."
- Joshua Hull, screenwriter of Glorius
