by Vera Nazarian

Grant-Williams High books in chronological order
Series background & context
Grant-Williams High is a comic horror series built on one very bad school tradition: finals week is literally Hell Week. At this high school, teachers and staff turn into monsters, and surviving classes can mean fighting vampires, werewolves, ghouls, and creatures far worse than ordinary teenage embarrassment.
The collection Mayhem at Grant-Williams High brings together the first two connected adventures, Hell Week at Grant-Williams High and Halloween at Grant-Williams High. It is the right place to start because it introduces the school, its warped rules, and the students stuck dealing with them.
Jimmy Ross is at the center of the chaos. In the first story, he is a freshman trying to get through a week when the faculty become an army of supernatural threats under the command of an especially dangerous principal. His older sister Emily and a circle of friends are part of the fight, armed with whatever they can find, including preparation, nerve, and a great deal of luck.
Then Halloween makes things worse.
By the second adventure, Jimmy is a sophomore, Emily has left for college, and his friend Theo is drifting toward a bad crowd. A new girl becomes a target for school cruelty, while something foul and genuinely threatening is loose on campus. The story keeps the monster action moving, but it also makes room for the changing friendships and social traps that make high school feel dangerous even before the monsters show up.
These are quick, irreverent stories. The horror is broad and pulpy rather than grim, and the jokes lean into the ridiculousness of lockers, crushes, homework, and school rules existing beside demons and the undead. Nazarian plays the premise straight enough for the danger to matter, while never losing sight of how funny it is that teenagers must treat monster-defense kits as basic school supplies.
Start with Mayhem at Grant-Williams High. It gives you both early adventures in one volume and works as a compact dose of supernatural school chaos.
