He seems to want something from her, but what?Ĭlaire tries to parse out the identity of this mystery boy. She is being haunted by that boy from the bus, or at least by his spirit. It doesn't take long for her to put tw0-and-two together. It's after that night that the scratching starts and the number 396 begins popping up everywhere for Claire. At the end of the tour, when she goes to check on him, he's gone. He's dressed strangely, like his clothes come from a different time and he doesn't seem to be interacting with anyone.Ĭlaire is disturbed by his presence. Their family can't afford to refund all the tickets, so Claire begrudgingly agrees to assist for one tour.Īs the night slowly progresses, it seems to be going okay, but then Claire notices a little boy all alone. No one else can do it and he can't do it himself. Unfortunately, one night her Dad needs her help on the tour. She's a science-girl at heart and all that supernatural mumbo-jumbo is just not for her.
Generally speaking, Claire chooses to distance herself from her Dad's business. This story follows Claire, whose Dad runs a ghost-themed Chicago bus tour.
The thing is, I really want more people to pick this one up. For some reason, even though I absolutely adored this Spooky Middle Grade story, I completely forgot to review it. I read Scritch Scratch in a 24-hour period at the beginning of June.
