"Wait Till Helen Comes" is a 1986 novel by American author Mary Downing Hahn. It was first published on January 1, 1986 through HarperCollins and has since gone through several reprints. The book won a 1989 Young Reader's Choice Award and follows a young girl that must deal with supernatural events that surround her.
Twelve-year-old Molly and her brother Michael resent their new seven-year-old stepsister Heather. Heather's mother died in a house fire when Heather was three, leaving her clingy and possessive of her father Dave and resentful and jealous of the attention he gives to his new wife Jean and her children. Heather constantly lies about Molly and Michael bullying her, causing Dave and Jean to mistrust them. The tension compounds when the family moves to a small town deep in the country where Molly and Michael will be unable to avoid Heather all summer. Superstitious Molly is also alarmed to learn that their new home is a converted church with an attached graveyard.
Michael and Molly visit the town library and learn that Helen Elizabeth Harper was a real child who died one hundred years before. Her mother and stepfather died in a fire; Helen escaped the blaze only to panic and run into a nearby pond, where she drowned. Helen was buried under a temporary stone in anticipation of recovering the bodies of her parents, but they were never found, leaving Helen alone. Other children have drowned in the same pond over the years, and Molly begins to fear that Helen plans to lure Heather into the pond so that she will stay with Helen forever.
