About this ebook

In this spinoff to the New York Times–bestselling Goosebumps series, best friends enter a haunted house and a spirit tries to keep them there forever.

Scott Harmon would be the kid who is most afraid of everything at his school. That is, if it wasn’t for his best friend, Amanda Gold, who is just as easily terrified. They really don’t have it easy. Scott’s younger sister spends all of her time trying to frighten them. She’ll do whatever it takes to get them to scream. Scott and Amanda are also tormented by some neighborhood kids. But this Halloween, Scott and Amanda are determined to conquer their fears, even if that means spending time in the creepy old house that everyone else says is haunted. And if Scott and Amanda can stop being so afraid, maybe they can even finally get some revenge. Unless the house really is haunted . . .

Ratings and reviews

Overall good book. Quite predictable story with a nice surprise ending. The summary about haunted house with its own mind and the book cover is a bit misleading. Like the ghost villainesses though. So 4 star for me.

Now, that's what I call awesome sauce. Eat your heart out, Steve King!

Not R.L stine's best book
