Not a book but one of my favorite Spooky stories is that of La Llorona (the weeping woman). There are many versions of this story but they all center around the tale of a woman who drowned her children during a period of madness. When she realized what she'd done, she began to roam around crying for her children.

“On my nightstand was the Maya Mythology book Mom had given to me on my eighth birthday.“ This quote is an introduction to the Mayan mythology that is in this book.
This book uses the mythology part of speculative fiction's and imbeds it with some fantasy. This book uses lots of young adult themes so I think it would be good for middle school age.
pickStorm Runner by J.C. Cervantes. Fantasy Fiction. Mayan Mythology. This book is speculative fiction because it refers to mayan gods and its mythology. It refers to magic and fantasy in Mexico. I think that book would be fun to read as a class everyday. I think that it would also be good to use when talking about different genres, specifically different types of fiction.
