Overview
Hey, Ghosties, this is the Ghost Queen tuning in from the most haunted place in India! Teen vlogger Malika's ghost hunter channel is almost popular enough to start earning money to support her family. All she needs is one viral video--and she knows exactly where she's going to get it. Bhangarh Fort is the most haunted place in India, rumoured to be home to the cursed princess Ratnavati and her wicked captor. Malika convinces her boyfriend to sneak into the fort with her after dark and record the experience for her avid fans and followers. That's when things go terribly wrong. Can the ""Ghost Queen"" escape, or is she doomed to spend eternity trapped with a mad magician and the princess who rejected him? This short novel is a high-interest, low-reading level book for teen readers who are building reading skills, want a quick read or say they don't like to read! The epub edition of this title is fully accessible.

Reviews
""Successfully offers a premise that will appeal to teens who prefer to spend their time on social media, combining an influencer protagonist with the pacing and resolution of popular short-form creepypasta content. Ultimately, the folklore-esque nature of this snappy read make it both fun and accessible."" -- ""Booklist"" ""Modern and relevant...an important kernel of truth lies at the heart of all these stories. The writing is high-quality across the board: believable dialogue, layered characters, and fast-moving plots."" -- ""School Library Journal (SLJ) Series Made Simple"" ""Offers plenty of creepy thrills. Narsimhan skillfully balances a fast-paced plot with thoroughly dark, emotionally charged scenes. The connection to an actual legend and site in India enriches the story and heightens the fear factor. An entertaining ghostly romp that will draw in reluctant readers."" -- ""Kirkus Reviews""
