The title on this one is apt- the evil is hidden both in that there is a hidden key to a hidden ghost, but also because the truth of who the evil child is is hidden. Well, it's sort of hidden, anyone who's been reading this series knows from the beginning that sweet, innocent appearing Andrew is the evil child. The format for the story (being told by Garret as a ghost story about other people), works well though.
The Hidden Evil tells the chilling story of Timothy, who uncovers a dark family tale about Maggie, the governess who whispers to the dead—and then discovers that summoning spirits may carry a price far beyond imagination. This 148‑page Fear Street Saga delivers classic YA supernatural suspense with escalating dread and unexpected twists. Perfect for teens who love ghost stories and power-driven thrills.
