Scary club

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Grusel-Club is a book series for young people by the Austrian children's book author Thomas Brezina and published by Franz Schneider Verlag Munich.

The main characters are 13-year-old Jupiter Katz, the son of the scientist Professor Erasmus Katz, as well as his 12-year-old cousin Vicky and her 11-year-old brother Nick. The three founded the so-called horror club, the aim of which is to get to the bottom of scary events. The club's headquarters are located in the former torture cellar of Falkenfels Castle, where Professor Erasmus Katz lives with his son Jupiter.

In the books, the reader is repeatedly asked questions that can be resolved by looking closely at the illustrations and by thinking carefully. The solutions can be read using the so-called "haunted magnifying glass" that is included in every book. For each correctly answered question, the reader receives a certain number of points (usually 1 to a maximum of 3 points, depending on the difficulty of the question). At the end there is an evaluation in which the reader learns how well he would be for ghost hunting.

In April 2003 the first book from the Zeitspringer series was published. It is a spin-off of the Horror Club series. A gate to the past opens in the vaulted cellar of Falkenfels Castle. The members of the horror club can now clear up scary incidents in the past.
