PERFECT FOR TELLING AROUND THE CAMPFIRE!
SCARY STORIES TO TELL IN THE DARK has classic campfire stories, such as ''The Hook'', and ''Me-Tie Daughty Walker'' along with lesser known tales like ''Alligators'' and ''May I Carry Your Basket''? Some stories are funny, such as ''The Viper'' (I've come to vipe your vindows) and ''The Ghost With Bloody Fingers'' (cool it dude, get a band-aid) while others are genuinely spooky, like ''The Guests'' and ''Cold as Clay''. The book was clearly intended for reading out loud, many stories even have tips for the reader, such as when to raise and lower your voice. Stephen Gammell's pictures are mysterious and darkly beautiful. I highly recommend this book for those looking for a spooky read aloud.

Pretty darn creepy
First of all, at 14 years old, I have never been the most courageous of all, especially when it comes to ghost stories and psychological fear, the fear that lurks in your head; I have ALWAYS possessed that peculiar human craving to be scared out of my wits by a good ghost story, but like the human I am, have more often than not chickened out before getting to the "punchline" of the tale.
A LOT better than R.C. Welch's "Scary Stories For Stormy Nights"!
A LOT better than R.C. Welch's "Scary Stories For Stormy Nights"! Unlike that book, these stories are original (and not sad).

To be continued...
Pike continues to wow me with this series, and I look forward to reading more of his future novels. The only thing that upsets me is that I still want him to return to his young adult storytelling...200-pages of solid, fast-paced action. The 'Alosha' series, like his adult novels, could be great if more to the point. Instead, we are settling for just "good". I have suggested a title change at Amazon.com because 'Trilogy' is wrong. Book 4 is on the way. ... Read more

Inspired me
When I was three or four, my older sister would show me the pictures in this book and being so scared, I would cry. The images are so strong, they really make the book what it is. When I was 8, I sat there for hours.. staring at the images, afraid that just maybe they were staring back at me too. They hold so much life and creativity, they inspired me. I'm a photographer, and looking at my gallery, I can see where each picture was inspired by this book somehow (my drawings, too).
Great stories!
I have always been fascinated with all of Alvin Schwartz's Scary Stories collection, ever since I was a child. Stephen Gammell's drawings are really creepy and amazing. I purchased these books to hopefully share with my students. BEWARE though, some young children become frightened with some of the drawings! For ages 9 and up!

These stories are TERRIFYING!
When I first first bought this audiobook, I thought that these stories wouldn't really be that great and certainly not that scary. But I was wrong. These strories are TERRIFYING! What actually makes them terrifying in the audiobook version is the narrator. He has such a dark and creepy voice while reading these stories. I am now 17 and I still can't listen to these stories alone at night. If you want to be scared out of your wits, read or listen to these stories. Listen to them in the dark by yourself. I DARE YOU! You won't last 5 minutes. ... Read more

Froggy Lover!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think the haunted school was awesome! There were some kids from the 1940s and one day they all just vanished.And the rest is for you to find out! Trust me its COOL!

AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!
This book was amazing. It started off with these 3 normal kids working on a dance for the dance comittee. They ran out of paint so Ben had to go get some...on the thrid floor. Then when Ben went to get the paint he ran into a gray figure named Greta. He ran away but ran into a wrong room. He found aa bunch of statues of children that were from the 40s, and someone named Mrs. Broadan. She explained that 25 kids disappeared because someone named Mr. Chameleon took a picture of them, then vanished into thin air. Then Ben finally finds his way to his friends. He explains what happened. Then later on a girl named Thailia was putting lipstick on, but Greta stole it from her and Thalia started to get mad. Ben went back to the thrid floor with his friend only to get stuck in a dimension with the 25 missing children who were all gray. They got there from an elevator that went sideways. They said the same thing Mrs. Broadan said. Ben turned gray and so did his friend. He jumped out the window with his friend and these colorless figures tried to push them into a pit, but they escaped. They finally cracked open the elevator doors and were safe. They returned to the dance with his friend then they were going to take a picture. Mrs. Broadan said "Take the picture Mr. Chameleom." THen Ben thought about the name for a second and said " WAIT!!!" but it was too late. The picture was taken.
Cool!

Field of Screams
THEY'RE ALIVE!
a scary book
goosebumps books are great books to read. It will give you goosebumps .There is a boy named mark and he thinks that a boy named sticks is one of the scarecrows and he thinks that sticks is pulling one of his tricks that he does all of the time.

This story is full of scarecrows.
Do you see any scarecrows "coming alive"? Goosebumps- The Scarecrow Walks At Midnight is mostly about scarecrows. R.L Stine is an author of over two dozen best selling thrillers and mysteries for young people. He also wrote these books- The Dead Girlfriend, Don't Go To Sleep, and Go Eat Worms. He always tries to write scary and mysteries books. This story happened on Mark's Grandpas farm. I think that R.L Stine is trying to say that, you don't need to be scared.

A great read!
A Night in Terror Tower is an amazing little book.With only 129 pages it is more than able to draw in a reader and fuel the imagination long after completion.The story is about two young children in London.They take a tour to the Terror Tower in London.The tour turns sour when they lose their guide and are hunted by the mysterious man in the black cape.The children are suffering from memory loss and nothing seems to be going their way!When the man in the black cape catches them the story takes a major twist, the kids are now in the past!This story is excellent for younger readers and will keep them turning pages for hours.I would recommend this book for anyone ages 8-12, but even adults could enjoy this as a quick night read!The graphic settings and bone chilling details to R. L. Stines books really keep you involved.The story is filled with humor, horror, drama, and action that won't let you sit anywhere but the edge of your seat.

Goosebumps # 27: A night in terror tower
A Night in Terror Tower is not the best Goosebumps book, But it is still good.
The revening beast
I just read a book called A NIGHT IN TERROR TOWER by R.L.STINE. The main characters are EDDIE and SUE.THEY are hard headed brother and sister. They visit England. Then they visit the TERROR TOWER and they get trap in the TERROR TOWER. I like the book because it was scary.And the book had magic word an magic power. ... Read more

Don't Go To Sleep!
This story is about a boy who hates his closet-sized room.After begging his mom to let him sleep in the guest room,he decides to sneak into the guest room.BIG mistake!!He wakes up a teenager! That and other nightmares taunt him in this book.

Matt's Fault!
Poor Matt. When Matt is not allowed to sleep in the guest room, He sneaks at night and goes to sleep... And whenhe wakes up at Chapter 3 in the book. Something terrifying has happened...

Look's like snooze time for me!
R.L. Stine throws a desperate attempt to satisfy his readers. It tricks me but I didn't connect with the book. Stine whips up a plain story about a anxious kid called Matt who suffers complete boredom and wants to sleep in a bigger room. With older siblings teasing him through every corner of life, he sneaks into the guest room and falls asleep. He wakes up and somehow finds himself in a reality time-warp. Waking up and finding himself turn into a different monster or human each time must be stressful. It aint scary. That's what Goosebumps books are all about. Just the pleasure of reading. But trust me, this isn't the best Stine book. It aint even the best Goosebumps book. But if you are a Goosebumps fan and adore his writing, you should go down to the library or bookstore to read it.

This Book Will Grow on You!
Stay Out of the Basement is the second in the Goosebumps Series and we are becoming quite familiar with R.L. Stein's writing at this point, and without hesitation, I think he's about the equivalent to Stephen King and/or Twilight Zone/or The Outer Limits for kids...his stories are always slightly creepy, seem to have slightly campy leanings,almost too outlandish to be believable and always with a twist at the end that leaves you wondering.
Really Scary
I loved this book especially because the main character has the same name as me... Brewer. It was really scary and I couldn't guess what happens next. You must read this book.

Something's Waiting In the Dark...
Stay Out of the Basement is the second book in the Goosebump's series. It is also one of my favorites. Stay Out of the Basement is about the Brewer family. Dr. Brewer is a botanist who gets fired from his job because some of his expeirements went wrong. When Dr. Brewer starts working in the basement at home the family never see him. Casey and Margaret are Dr. Brewer's kids. When their mom has to go take care of her sister in Tucson, strange things start happening with their father. Then they start hearing strange sounds from the basement. Casey and Margaret go down to investigate. They could never have imagined what they found down there... ... Read more

Sure to be a popular pre-teen series
This is the second book in a new series from beloved children's author R. L. Stine of Goosebumps fame.Bernie Bridges has a problem.His residential school does not allow any pets and his dog and parrot have arrived.How will he keep them hidden from view?A quick thinker, Bernie enrolls his dog in school.But the dog received his nickname of Gassy for a good reason and this causes all kinds of problems.The Great Smelling Bee will appeal to most school kids between 8 and 12 years of age.A departure from the Goosebumps style it is a good read filled with descriptions of the gross and messy stuff children that age like to read about while still providing an interesting story with plenty of twists and turns.This book should appeal strongly to boys where other books often fail.

son age10 loved it
Join Bernie Bridges in his second book. This time his mother and father send his pets to school. Only problem is that there are no pets allowed at Rotten School. Will they let his dog and parrot stay? Find out in the fast paced adventure in this book.

Good Creepy Fun!
The third in the Goosebumps series, Monster Blood is a riot of creepiness and is sure not to disappoint!I think I see a pattern developing (though I suppose three books in is a bit too soon to make any final judgments)...this series seems to be more about a campy and creepy type of vibe than a truly horrific/scary one (though the first one, I felt was genuinely scary in places), I'm getting a bit of Tales from the Crypt Jr. feel as I am going through the series and I rather like that.
My favorite Goosebumps book
I loved this book I couldn't stop reading. It's about a kid named Evan Ross who has to stay with his great aunt Kathryn who's deaf. He meets a girl named Andy who has to go get a present for someone and they go to an old toy store. Evan finds a can of Monster Blood and takes it home. He opens it and this green goo comes out. I won't tell you anything more but it's a great book.

Getting rid of Monster Blood is very hard.
Man, this book brings back memories. I read it when it first came out. It was my favorite goosebump book in the series. Particularly becuase I loved the plot. A boy gets a can of goo-like substance that can't stop growing. It really made my imagination grow. Very clear descriptions and a very weird plot. ... Read more

Pretty decent entertainment
I remember collecting Goosebumps when the first wave came out a decade ago. Ghost Beach was written around the time the series was taking off in popularity, but before it got saturated in merchandise and took a dip in quality. There's nothing goofy about Ghost Beach, it's a straight-forward ghost story with some decent twists here and there. It's also one of the scarier books in the series, along the lines of "Welcome to Dead House." Good for some safe scares.
GHOST BEACH
I would recommend this book to people who like ghost stories. This book is the second best book I've ever read. GHOST BEACH islong and makes you want to read more but don't read to much or you might forget to do your oral report.

Goosebumps GHOST BEACH
I REALLY REALLY LOVE goosebunps!! They are easy so I wish R.L stine would write some thicker ones! I think this book was a 100% GOOD, so I want to read more.

Give yourself goosebumps with this book.
This is my introduction for the Goosebumps book It Came From Beneath the Sink.This is a great book to me because it has good chase scenes, its funny, and it's somewhat scary.The reason its scary is because a cannibal sponge with razor sharp teeth wants to kill the main characters.It's funny because that blood thirsty sponge well, it's a sponge!The chase scenes are good because the sponge makes the kids go into a dark eerie sewer by accident.
If there's a lesson to be learned
If there's a lesson to be learned from this book, it's that cleaning can't lead to anything good - so get the kids to clean under the sink before they read it.They may never do it again.
an okay book
it was an okay book but when i saw it first i thought that this story is so cool but when i read it i didn't like it that much to tell u the truth it wasn't interesting it wasn't scary and the ending was the worst i'm sorry to say that but it is the truth it's all about a girl finds a sponge beneath the sink but then she relised that it is not a sponge coz it is breathing and it is alive and it's called the grool and it brings bad luck for her and her family even it ruins her birthday and she knows that if she throws it away she will die within one day !!! and it can't be killed by violence......... ...

Much Better Then The First
Choice of the Cat clearly outshines Way of the Wolf.Knight focuses more on a plot and sticks to it rather then jumping around aimlessly like in the Wolf.He also actually gives Valentine a personality and emotions compared to the first book in the series.Also, its nice to see him develop some other characters and that they aren't killed off so easily as in the past.Valentine develops quite a bit from start to finish in this one.
Not as good as the first book
The first book had a lot of tension and build up.This one didn't seem to have that well defined pace.I call it the "Frodo behind the tree" tension in honor of the wonder scene in LOTR's first installment where Frodo and friends hide behind a tree while the nazgul searches for them.
Better than the first book!
Knight has found his stride in this book.He reveals a bit more about the races struggling over the Earth.He manages to reveal the story bit by bit in true mystery book fashion.His writing style caused me to go back and re-read earlier sections of the book -- sure enough, the hints and clues were there.Valentine, the main character, undergoes a further transformation that makes him much more effective at hiding and disrupting the Kurians plans for the human herd.Knight also ties up some loose ends from the first book in a plausible way.Knight's descriptions of various locations from midwest America are nicely done and quite evocative.His supporting characters are engaging and nicely crafted.

A Chilling story
How to Kill a Monster is a fabulous book.It is a spine tingling, heart breathing, and breathe taking scary book.It is about two is my favorite o kids, Gretchen who is 12 and Clark who is 12 went to visit their grand parents.The grandpa is my favorite character because he is nearly deaf and the grandma just likes to cook.The two kids had some trouble getting there thought.At the house, they found a locked door and wanted to check it out. However, their grandparents tell them to stay away.Can you guess what happened?Yah they open the door and something comes out.When Gretchen and Clark go downstairs, they are locked in.Do they get out?You will have to read the book to find out.In my opinion people 9 and up should read this book.I just thought it was a wonderful book.

Goosebumps WELCOME TO CAMP NIGHTMARE
I was addicted to these books when I was younger and it wasn't until I was majoring in education in college that I figured out why. They were interesting with bizarre plot twists that most 9-12 year olds don't think about and they were short (usually between 110-130 pages). I could read the whole thing in a day.

Some of the best 'spooky' juvenile fiction out there!
I'm 37 years old and I still love John Bellairs, particularly this series, which features a great cast of characters:Lewis Barnavelt, the orphan who comes to live with his Uncle Jonathan, a wizard, who lives next door to a witch, Mrs. Zimmermann.It's a wonderfully 'spooky' tale entirely appropriate for kids, but enjoyable for adults as well.I can't wait until my nephew is old enough to read these.

..and the clock ticked on
Some parts of this story may seem a little familiar to fans of Young Adult Fiction, but John Bellairs has a distinctive style which makes this an extremely enjoyable read. A modern children's classic!
John Bellairs' "The House with a Clock in its Walls" is one of the most interesting and original little thrillers I've had the pleasure to come across.Bellairs' style of mixing the everyday with unusual events of magic and fantasy is just perfect, what I love most, is how he makes it all so fitting and realistic, making you believe something like this could happen to any little boy or girl.

deep trouble
you will like this book Deep trouble because it begins like this a boy is looking for a griant sting ray and he gosto the middled and gets suck underwater then he went back to surface and gasp for air then he races he sister he took a short cut he stops he had steped on fire coral it burned his foot and he found a mermaid they count it the mermaid i can't tell you the ending....

All About A Good Book
This is all about the book Deep Trouble.It is about these peoplethinking that they caught a mermaid and then these zoopeople came and said that they would give the other people one million dollars, but the oter people did not give them the mermaid, and thats how the book went, this was one of the best books I have ever read.

Misleading, but Good
I'm a very tuff critic, and as much as I like R.L. Stine, this isn't his best. The story, in my opinion, is misleading. It's supposed to be the "Don't Go In The Water" scenario, but it's mainly about mermaids, something that isn't very scary. Early in the book is the best scene. A hammerhead circles the main character. If only the whole book would have dealt on this topic. But, I do believe that it is worth buying and reading. Hope you enjoy! ... Read more

Say Cheese and Die
This book was very interesting.I enjoyed it a lot because it was very addicting.When the story develops, it gets very exciting.It is for younger readers, 5th grade and younger probably.I liked this book, but I felt it was too easy.It is the best Goosebumps book I've read by far.A girl vanished and magically reappeared out of nowhere.Greg takes a picture of his dads' brand new car and when the picture develops the car is shown totaled.If you read other Goosebumps books, you would like this book.
Say cheese and die
It's an amazing book. It's about 4 chracters Greg,Shari,Michael,and Bird who took a camera but bad things starts to happen to him after taking the pictures of people. If you wan't to know more, read this book! it's a great book for kids and I will recommend this to anyone.

Dont say cheese please!
This book is about four kids that say that live in the most boring place. Ones they decide to go to a house that no one live there. In there Greg finds a camera and lots of weird things happend. Then they go back and return it to the house and ask them selfs if the camera made bad things to happend or what.

Let's Get Invisible
Maybe because it's an early volume this is, in my opinion, one of Stine's better books.Later in the series, many stories just got a little too silly. This is my favorite Goosebumps story so far!
When 12 year old Max and his friends find a mysterious mirror in a room in the attic of his home, they discover a strange and amazing magic that has been lurking in Max's house for a long time. Disapperences Can Be Deadly
On his 12th birthday, Max, two of his friends(Erin and April) and his younger brother Lefty discover a mirror hidden away in the attiac. While inspecting the mirror, they discover a lightbulb with a chain hanging from the mirror. When Max pulls the chain he becomes invisible. When he turns the light off he reappers. The next time they inspect the mirror one of Max's other friends Zack joins them and they start a competion with whoever can stay invisible the longest. The strange thing is though, that during the last few minutes, they all feel like the light is pulling them towards the mirror. Then during the competion Max starts noticing that his friends look different but he can't tell how they look different. What deadly secrets does the mirror hold. Turning invisible is just a game right? What can go wrong?

Forgot your season ticket.
Me and my brother read this one at the same time. It starts out slow but it turns into one of those 'we took a wrong turn but look where we ended up' type book. And what a perfect area to get lost in--an amusement park. An amusement part gone horribly wrong. I love the way they use everything in the park from the house of mirrors all the way to the roller coasters. But the end of the book is the best part. Enjoy!
