I was very first read this book in 6th grade by a teacher. It kept everyone's attention and she didn't need to tell anyone to keep quiet. I read it again recently and am planning on reading it in my own classroom. If you have a wild imagination you might want to think twice about reading this. It scared me at the age of 20 into doing a double take before turning off the lights at night.

okay. I hate scary stuff and it was hard to pick up this book at first. But it was like a scary movie that you cant stop watching. The only thing different is that I did not regret this one. Even though it is terrifying at some parts, it's pretty good. As a kid, I advise not to buy this book for a little kid. The horror elements are kind of creepy. The couple hours afterward were very alert to dark places. If you like old horror movies, you'll love this book!!!!!!!

Do you like mumies, secret passaveways, and a curse that may give you quite a scare? Then you should read The House on Hackman's Hill by Joan Lowery Nixon.
This fiction book is about two cousins, Jeff and Debbie, who are looking for a little adventure and are bound to find the mummy that many people have been trying to find for many years. They can't escape the terrible curse, they are stuck in the mansion because of the horrible snowstorm, and there is no turning back until they solve the mystery on Hackman's Hill.
What I like about this book is taht you never want to put it down. Like most books you may be able to predict what is going to happen, but not in this book. And it only has 126 pages. Scholastic published a good book.
The autor may be familiar to some more than others. But Joan Lowery Nixon is an author that writes mainly mysterious books. She has many series out, which include: Orphan Train Adventures, Hollywood Daughter, Disney Adventures Case Buters and many more series. Nixon also has many, many novels out. Many of them are mysteries. She has won some awards for her writing, including being the only four-tijme winner of the Mystery Writers of America Edgar Allan Poe Award and a two-time winner of the California Young Reader Medal.
I would give theis book 3 stars out of five for the great adventure and mystery. Overall The House on Hackman's Hill is a great read taht many would enjoy if they like mysteries. ANd if you don't like a good scare, here and there, then I don't think this is a good book for you.
