Are you a true Minecraft fan? If so, then you probably know about Steve: The fabled miner who defeated the ender dragon. But what about after?

Well, not all heroes make it into the storybooks....

In this playful story, a rascally monster with zany blue hair is discovered living under little Elizabeth Sue Gloo's stairs. He is the culprit behind many mischiefs that occur in the house—hiding socks from the laundry, tormenting the cats, chipping the good china, and using dad's toothbrush to groom the dog. Finally exasperated at his antics, Elizabeth gives the little scamp a firm talking-to, resulting in some surprising tears from the Gorgle.

Peter Green’s exploits in the world of the Unliving have earned him quite the reputation, but some are still questioning if he’s the real deal. In fact, he’s not too sure himself if his first great and successful adventure wasn’t just… a stroke of luck, perhaps? However, he won’t get any time to figure it out—his uncle needs him and two new friends to venture out on a mission. And not just any mission… Vicious pirates, killer, shape-shifting mermaids, and danger unlike any they’ve ever faced await Peter and his friends. Failure is NOT an option.

Fourteen-year-old Peter Green can’t remember how he died. All he has are his pajamas, a silk tie, and a one-way bus ticket to Mrs. Battisworth’s Academy and Haven for Unliving Boys and Girls, a strange and spooky school for dead orphans like himself. But that’s all he needs. The Unliving Academy has everything, from vampires in the hallways to monsters in the cafeteria to ghosts in the basement. And that’s just the teachers; the students are far stranger.

Barely having survived his last adventure, it isn’t long before Peter Green is cast into peril once more. Thankfully, he seems to be getting a grasp of his “Other” abilities–his magic abilities–and it's starting to give him an edge in the battle against the victims of the otherworld. But what happens when disaster strikes where it hurts him the most, and his new best friends are placed in great danger? This may not be a mission that Peter and his friends return from.

What if Shadows, Vampires, Werewolves, and Witches, celebrated Halloween with friends, cupcakes, and soup ? Perhaps it was a dream… perhaps it was all true… Even when things look scary, they don't have to scare you!
