Herbie and the Spirits!

Story Featuring Herbie

"Maybe it wouldn't have happened if Herbie hadn't changed his school!"

Storyline

Herbie is the new kid in school. He proves his bravery by going to a haunted house. Supernatural beings (a witch, a ghost, a creep, and Frankenstein) cause havoc, but prove to be no match for Herbie, his lollipops, or his magic.

Story Notes

Herbie looks and talks differently in this pre-Herbie series story. In this story, Herbie's pants are brown; in all other original stories, they were blue. The being called Frankenstein is really Frankenstein's Monster, but is called Frankenstein throughout the Herbie stories.

The Roadside Restaurant!

"The powerful car sloshed down the country road through driving rain, and ahead a neon sign blinked garishly!"
