The Funtime Show (Ellie Jordan, Ghost Trapper #19) by J.L Bryan

"Come here, children, play with me, I'm the friend in your TV..."

The Calvert family's new home used to belong to a deceased creator of a forgotten puppet children's program. The younger children are fond and fascinated by the basement, where the stage still stands and rooms are full of the sets, props, puppets, and costumes. The parents are happy and thrilled to see the children using imagination instead of being focused on screens, but their experiences throughout the house become more and more haunting. Reruns are happening in all aspects of this house and Ellie and team must protect the family, especially the children, before they're drawn and become part of the show.

This was the CREEPIEST one of the series. I am literally haunted by the thought of the family being strung up like marionette puppets. There is so much history and lore in this book that it completely immerses you into it. Absolutely nightmare fuel. Possessions, puppets, and dark medieval creepy magic. I don't want to give too much away, but this one is definitely recommended, and you need to make sure you're ready to read it before you start. Cause you won't put it down and then won't be able to sleep at night.
