Cas dispatches other ghosts with a special knife and learns their stories of how they died, usually violently. Hauntings show gory details of deaths, such as spilled intestines. Cas' father had also been found dead, partially eaten, 10 years before. People unknown to Cas are found killed and partially eaten. Two of these teens are found dead, ripped apart with blood everywhere one is killed by a parent one is ripped in half by a ghost.

Teens known to the main character, Cas, die gruesomely - three of them in the present, one in a flashback that includes fear of sexual abuse. It's a good fit for mature readers who are avid watchers of scary movies.

With "blood" in the title, you'd be smart to expect lots of it here, along with ghost scares. Parents need to know that Anna Dressed in Blood is the start to a horror series by Kendare Blake ( Three Dark Crowns) with a movie in the works produced by Twilight author Stephenie Meyer and starring Maddie Hasson and Cameron Monaghan.
