Get ready for a buttload of laughs in this hilarious picture book about a pair of siblings who face a frightening question—can butts be haunted? Featuring a glow-in-the-dark cover!

Two siblings are going to sleep over at Gramma and Grampa’s creepy new house for the very first time. Their neighbors say there’s a ghost living there, but these kids definitely aren’t scared. That is…until the dead of night, when strange sounds and smells start coming from the older brother’s pants. There’s only one logical conclusion… His butt must be haunted!

Filled with gas, ghosts, and plenty of giggles, this book will inspire endless rereads as it turns farts into the butt of the joke.
"In Sanchez’s illustrations, green and yellow swirls pop against the muted gloom of the house; readers will positively smell the noxious fumes. From the opening lines—"Tonight is a big stinkin’ deal"—all the way through to the conclusion, this tale will have readers in stitches with its goofy wordplay."—Kirkus Reviews
Beginning in fifth grade, DAN POBLOCKI would gather his friends after school, frightening them with tales of ghosts, monsters, and spooky places.  When his mother began to receive phone calls from neighborhood parents, warning that her son's stories were giving their children nightmares, Dan decided to write the stories down instead. Dan now battles his own neighborhood monsters in Brooklyn, NY. View titles by Dan Poblocki
