Throughout October, The Skeleton In The Closet arrives in one's home to play tricks or give treats all month long. This beautifully illustrated children's book and 19" pose-able skeleton doll comes alive at night while children slumber and leave surprises for when they wake. Your skeleton may be sweet and bring you a special holiday treat, like a favorite candy bar. Or, it may be a bit mischievous and play harmless tricks like tying your shoelaces together or hiding your teddy bear in the closet. It may leave you notes or riddles or jokes. Your skeleton doesn't report to anyone, it's just here to have a little fun…. Until October 31^st, of course, when it returns to its grave to wait another year.

This playful and clever story was written by Chad Shea, and self-published by Armand Prosper, LLC*. The Skeleton In The Closet came to life in 2013 when Chad and his wife, Jilaine, created this fun Halloween tradition for their two children. Wanting to share the tradition with families everywhere, they commissioned Danielle Beu to illustrate the book. The beautiful watercolor artwork brings this clever and charming story to life giving it a unique and playful style captivating children and adults of all ages.

"Beyond the fun trick-or-treat element of the holiday, the book itself is a charming story which reminds us that we don't need to reinvent Halloween," says Chad. "We want to embrace the basics of family activity and create new memories that our children will cherish for a lifetime."

"The Skeleton In The Closet – A Halloween Tradition" book and doll set is now available at select mom & pop shops throughout the United States and online at Amazon.com, which includes free 2 day shipping for Amazon Prime members.  In Canada, it is exclusively sold at Halloween Alley, with over 40 locations throughout the country. But the fun doesn't end when you purchase the book,  "We love seeing how excited people of all ages are about this Halloween tradition! We strive to make a quality product and we offer a lot of free activities via our website and social networks, so we can interact as much as possible with our fans. We simply want to encourage all families to play more and have fun with the Halloween season!" says Jilaine, "We believe that the fun shouldn't be reserved for October 31st alone."

People everywhere are howling praises for "The Skeleton In The Closet" as one Amazon review states, "Such a great book for the Halloween season! I read it to my kids over and over this year. Each morning we placed the skeleton in a new spot to trick some one in the family-- and by the end of the month, even the kids were in on the set up tricking mom and dad too. The Skeleton in the Closet is going to be an annual tradition for us now!"

This frightfully fun book is flying off the shelves faster than a witch on a broomstick! To purchase "The Skeleton In The Closet – A Halloween Tradition" book and doll set and view additional interactive content, visit www.theskeletoninthecloset.com.
