“The Phantom Hour” is the second book in the Babysitting Nightmares series by Kat Shepherd. Four best friends have already visited the Nightmare Realm and defeated the evil moon queen, but the supernatural still won’t leave them alone. Clio takes a babysitting job at an old house in town and starts being harassed by a ghost! She gets locked in the pantry after checking to make sure it was unlocked, hears mysterious thumps, and sees a picture fly in the air and smash in front of her. Clearly, something is going on!

Clio, Tanya, Maggie, and Rebecca work together to solve the mystery of the menacing ghost and find a way to get rid of it. Reminiscent of the Baby-Sitters’ Club Mystery series, four girls from different backgrounds use friendship, science, and research to defeat the supernatural. Aimed at ages 8 to 11, this book is a recommended purchase if you have a reader who enjoys mysteries, the supernatural, and strong girls.
