Lockwood & Co.: The Screaming Staircase: Lockwood & Co. Book 1
Jonathan Stroud's alternate London where children hunt lethal ghosts is proper horror disguised as middle grade fiction. Miranda Raison's narration nails the balance between bickering-kids comedy and genuine dread.
Lockwood & Co., Book 2: The Whispering Skull
A middle-grade mystery with surprisingly sophisticated character psychology, where the real tension isn't the stolen supernatural relic but the fracturing group dynamics. Katie Lyons delivers strong narration with genuinely creepy ghost voices, though male character differentiation occasionally blurs.
