The Ghost Prison by Scott M. Fischer, Joseph Delaney
3.0
I read this as a standalone with no other connection to the series, so take this review with a grain of salt.
This is a very short story (with illustrations) about a teenaged boy who has grown up in an orphanage and is about to age out of the orphanage. In order to prepare for that, he gets a job as a nighttime prison guard so that he's ready to live on his own. Only the prison is haunted and some really weird stuff happens.
As a standalone, this story works and is entertaining and totally spooky. And the way it ended shocked me, so that's a success in my book. But nothing wowed me either, so I give this a solid, middle-of-the-road 3 stars.
