[Q]

When exactly does it come out?

August.

[Q]

June July August , not to bad

Well, you might think that its bad, considering that right now, Haunted seems to be a stand-alone title that is coming out in the middle of a trilogy and neither have anything in common aside fromt he main characters and the fact that they are apart of the "Hardy Boys Undercover Brothers" series umbrella.

The cover for Haunted has been revealed at Simon & Schuster's official website. By the looks of it this third installment will be a re-make of the 1980's Ghost Stories. I like the background but am not so sure about the models, not how I picture the boys, anyway. Actually maybe it's not the models, it's more how there standing that's seems sort of strange to me.

If it's a remake of the 1984 book, lets hope that it is not in the first person style.

And I agree about the cover.  Joe looks like he's about to have an accident in his pants, and why does Frank look off balance.

Plus, is that a gun in Frank's hand?

[mystery chick 901]

the cover sure looks interesting...

and that does look like a gun. that'd be a first for the UB series

[SkyWarp]

I think it is just the background and not a gun.

To me it looks like one of those bad comedies when people are trying to sneak around but doing a bad job of it

The official plot summery that will appear on the back cover of ''Haunted'', has been revealed at SimonSays.

ATAC Briefing for Agents Frank and Joe Hardy:

Special Paranormal Operation

MISSION: Investigate possible supernatural disturbances at the Undercliff House of Detention, formerly an insane asylum in the 1800s.

LOCATION: Juvenile detention center in Glastonbury, CT.

POTENTIAL VICTIMS: Many of the inmates appear to be dying from pure terror!

SUSPECTS: Lara Renner claims to be a psychic with a direct line to the spirit behind the hauntings, but perhaps her motives are more down-to-earth. Then there's the cafeteria worker with a major grudge. Or could it be the culprits are truly ghosts?

Another MURDER story???  And coming in the middle of a MURDER trilogy?  Is this going to be a confusing summer of plot repeats or what?  What are the people at S&s on?

I never knew Frank was a surfer.

It looks like Frank's going to tip over and Joe is at a really weird angle...
