Mitch Morris finds the new girl odd. There's something strange about her--it might be her dark hair and pale skin, the way she can get him to do things he doesn't want to do, or the fact that he just can't remember her name! Even more odd is the sudden disappearance of blood from the local blood bank. When Mitch spends some time with Mercy, he finds he really likes her, even after he discovers her parents are vampires! The other Zombie Hunters think Mercy and her family have to go. Can Mitch be friends with a vampire?

Calico is an imprint of Magic Wagon, a division of ABDO. Have you ever walked past a cemetery as night is falling and had the sense you were being watched? Have you noticed a gray mist settle over a graveyard as you drive by? Now imagine you lived by one every day! Jared, Stan, Mitch, Barry, and Amy live in the small town of Marshfield, or "Graveyard City." The town has four old cemeteries, and each kid lives next to one. In fact, they've witnessed so many strange things in the graveyards that they've formed a group called the Zombie Hunters! But the Zombie Hunters hunt more than just zombies--they track ghosts, werewolves, and vampires, too. Each member of the group has started keeping a diary of the group's activities… what will you learn from the Graveyard Diaries?
