Ghouls and boos are heading back to Monster High for a new scaremester in the first volume of this new comic series!

While they’ll certainly be serving lurks in the hallway and haunting study howl, rumor has it that trouble is brewing. Draculaura, Clawdeen Wolf, Cleo de Nile, and Frankie Stein have never met a bad scare day or monstrous problem they couldn’t fix together…but Drac’s in over her fangs with new responsibilities, Clawdeen and Cleo aren’t speaking, and Frankie’s life may be in danger. The beasties need a fresh start, and what better time than the new scaremester? Surely a reconciliation is lurking just around the dark and foreboding coroner.

Volume 1 collects the 2024 Free Comic Book Day issue, Monster High Pride, and issues #1–4 of Monster High: New Scaremester writers Jacque Aye, Hannah Templer, and Megan Brown and artists Caroline Shuda, Siobhan Keenan, and Bowen McCurdy.
Jacque Aye is an author, worldbuilder, and creator of the popular indie brand Adorned by Chi. She is a vocal supporter of mental health awareness and self-care amongst Black women, advocating for those suffering from depression and social anxiety. In her fiction work, Jacque writes about woeful women with a surrealist, magical touch.

Jacque boasts over 16k followers on Instagram and over 12k on X.

Caroline Shuda is a comic artist and illustrator from Olympia, Washington. She graduated from Savannah College of Art and Design in 2021 with a BFA in sequential art. She is the oldest (by two minutes!) of a set of identical triplets, who are also visual artists. In her free time, Caroline can be found playing competitive Mario Kart online, watching anime, and spending time with her hamster.
