Doesn't matter how old I get, this will always be my favourite Goosebumps story. At least one of, if ever I find myself incapable of picking just one. Yeah, i've heard these are at a 2nd grade reading level, but whatever. Child of 90s. R.L.Stine. Need I say more? LoL
Carly Beth is easily frightened and is teased because her friends think it's funny. This Halloween, it's her turn to scare Chuck & Steve. Two guys who tease her mercilessly. She finds the perfect mask and gets the thrill of scaring not only Chuck & Steve, but also random people. It's exhilarating for her. Unfortunately, there is one complication that she did not forsee that could make it so she could never take off the mask.
The book was a bit different than the episode I have on VHS. For one, in the book, Chuck & Steve are her friends. In the episode, they are depicted as kids at school who try to get her to freak out so they can laugh. The episode is pretty close to the novella. One of Stines' really good books. The mask is actually a frightening mask and not one of those crappy rubber excuses for a mask that you find at a store. W 5 outta 5 stars.
