Nice book. Vio_olet and I read this together and we loved it. It was really funny and I think R.L. Stine did a great job for his first Goosebumps book written. Just one question though, which I wondered after I read the other books in his Goosebumps series, which got created after this book: why are all the main characters always 12 years old? It's very unlikely, or there's a high chance that it's true, but he does put all the narrator characters, (most of them at least), as 12-year-olds. No summaries or spoilers here. Thanks for reading my review!

Picked this one up at a used books store and am now planning on reading the entire series.

I have always loved Goosebumps, I used to watch it as a child and I re-watched the entire series back in high-school. My sisters had some of the books growing up but I never read them until now. Just putting this out there in case my love of this book come from nostalgia lol.

I am so happy I decided to pick this one up, R.L. Stine has a way with making a book creepy even when reading as an adult.
