Summary: Bluey’s first sleepover in America was supposed to be keepy-uppy and ghost stories. Instead, she meets Regan—twelve, pale, and floating three feet above a creaking Georgetown bed—on the one night the veil between worlds is thinnest, HALLOWEEN!
What starts as a game of “scare the demon” turns into midnight confessions whispered in Latin and barks. Between crucifixes and chew toys, something tender grows in the green vomit and candle smoke: a promise that even hell can’t keep two kids from holding paws.
Love knows no bounds, heaven, hell, or HALLOWEEN!
