Biography[]

Haunted Mask (Book)[]

She is first seen in school along with her best friend, Sabrina Mason, where she is scared by behind by Chuck Greene and Steve Boswell, who are said to often pull mean pranks in her because of her scarable nature. They proceed to give her a hamburger, and when she eats it, she feels a strange and sour flavor in her mouth and realizes she ate a worm. While Steve claimed it to be a rubber worm, but Carly Beth felt it warm and figured out it was a real worm. She became horrified and disgusted and vowed revenge on Steve and Chuck.

After arriving home, she's scared by her brother, Noah, and by an extremely well-made and realistic wax version of her head, made by her mother, so she can always see her face as she loves her so much. Her mother then informs that she made a duck costume for her for Halloween. She wanted something horrifying to scare Chuck and Steve, not a cute costume. She went on trying to find a costume store that sell a very scary mask. She found a closed store, but its shopkeeper saw her in the window, and allowed her to enter, as it was Halloween night. She saw many good masks, and even some scary ones, but she wanted something to stand out, and saw a ajar door, but the shopkeeper asked her not to go inside it, but was distracted by a call in the store's phone, which let Carly Beth inside, where she saw a lot of masks, realistic and totally horrifying and scary masks. She found the perfect one, a scary, green, goblin like mask, with sharp teeth, glowing eyes, and almost seeming alive. While the shopkeeper said those were too real and couldn't be bought, the Shopkeeper gave up, and she bought it from him, despite him saying she'd be sorry for that.

She scares Noah, some unknown kids, and Sabrina on her way to found Chuck and Steve. Sabrina praised her realistic mask, and went on trying to find the two boys along with Carly. The Mask, however, became more and more thick over the time, and Carly Beth herself started to lose track of herself, saying disturbing things, threatening to kill people, going beyond the limits of Halloween pranks, and finally scaring Steve and Chuck as she wanted, which made them run. However she realized that the line between her skin and the Mask vanished, and the Mask was attached to her head. She went to the shop, and the Shopkeeper explained that those masks were created by him, and became ugly and neglected, being called the Unloved Ones. They take over their user's control of their body, and can only be removed with a proof of love. All of the Unloved Ones suddenly came to life and attacked the Shopkeeper and Carly Beth, but she managed to run, and remove the Mask with the wax head her mother gave her as a proof of love. She goes home and tells her mother everything, before her brother walks in and asks how Carly's mask fit on him.
