The New York Undead
The New York Undead is a bold, spooky and action-packed Halloween adventure where the strongest weapon is not just a fist, but heart, skill and the will to never back down.
On Halloween night in New York City, something strange begins to rise. A purple haze creeps over Manhattan, the skyline darkens and an undead army appears with one terrifying challenge. Deep inside a hidden gym, New York's strongest armwrestlers are training when the city's fate suddenly falls into their hands. One by one, Johnny Big Arms, Bab, Rocco the Brick, Valora, Thumbs McCracken and the legendary Il Commodore step up to the stone table to defend the soul of New York.
This is not an ordinary Halloween story. It is a wild blend of monsters, movement, strength and sportsmanship, where zombies, skeletons and a winged demon meet the power of armwrestling technique. The heroes must use more than muscle to survive. They rely on courage, teamwork, focus, strategy and the classic skills of the sport, including the top-roll, the hook and the press. Every match becomes a test of heart, and every battle reminds readers that true strength comes from practice, bravery and believing in yourself.
Created by Lu & Matt through BTB Publishing and the Fun with Learning children's program, The New York Undead brings together Halloween fun, athletic imagination and a love of movement in a way young readers have never seen before. It is spooky without losing its playful spirit, exciting without forgetting its message and full of larger-than-life characters who stand up when their city needs them most.
Perfect for children who love Halloween, action stories, sports, monsters, superheroes, New York City and unforgettable characters, this book celebrates the courage to face fear, the discipline to develop skill and the power of never backing down. It is a one-of-a-kind armwrestling Halloween adventure for families, young readers and the armwrestling community around the world.
