Thirteen-year-old twin paranormal investigators Gabby and Trent face a terrifying challenge when a seance goes wrong and their mother disappears in a haunted theater, forcing them to confront a powerful demon and live up to their grandparents' ghost-hunting legacy.

From the publisher:
An action-packed, spine-tingling ghost story about twins with supernatural powers--perfect for fans of Five Nights At Freddy's and the Goosebumps series Thirteen-year-old twins Gabby and Trent Manning are Connecticut's youngest paranormal investigators. They both inherited "the gift" from their grandparents, the Mannings, whose legendary ghost hunts inspired several books and movies. But after their untimely deaths years ago, the Mannings have nearly been forgotten. Armed with EMF machines, flashlights, and recording equipment, the twins' mom drags them all over New England in an attempt to bring their family back into the limelight. Never mind that Gabby is tired of being known as a Ghost Twin, and Trent finds most of their haunts to be pretty frightening. Their latest destination is just what their mom thinks they need to go viral: the abandoned Majestic Theater, the site of the Mannings' infamous failed exorcism. However, nothing about this investigation goes to plan. After a terrifying seance-gone-wrong on the stage, their mother goes missing in the building, and it's clear that a powerful demon is haunting the theater. Will the twins be able live up to their grandparents' legacy and vanquish the demon--before it's too late? Featuring articles, interviews, and other found media throughout, The Many Hauntings of the Manning Family is packed with scares that will leave readers sleeping with the lights on.
