Souls in jars of pickled gherkins, a beastly bat and a door into the next world in the living room – there’s nothing in Scary Harry’s cosmos that isn’t there. Sonja Kaiblinger sends Otto and his bony pal into a new adventure, which contains a few surprises.

Well, Otto had hoped to get a dog in his Christmas stocking, but instead, he found a bat called Vincent hanging in there. Not only can he talk, but he can screech like a barn owl! Otto’s not sure what to think about his new housemate. However, Vincent soon turns out to be amazingly useful.
If you want to know how Otto managed to find a speaking bat, you can read all about it here! This prequel in form of a minibook is perfectly suited to readers who haven’t met Scary Harry, so far, and will amuse his small and bigger fans.

AWARDED:
