Scream and Scream Again!: Spooky Stories from Mystery Writers of America by Chris Grabenstein, R.L. Stine, Bruce Hale
3.0
My daughter and I have been reading this for literally months. The library website says “no more renewals allowed.” 😂
It could just be my bad sleep habits but I swear two pages in every night I was falling asleep.
That being said there were some genuinely good stories. There’s the one about the kids and the ice cream truck- that was 10/10. Good solid creep factor, you sorta know where it’s going, easy to imagine and sufficiently scary.
There was another one also, Don’t feed the birds? I think? That one was good too.
Most of the other stories I genuinely could not recall the next DAY. I don’t mean now, months later, I mean the very next night when I went to finish a story I had no idea what was happening.
Another story was too gross to finish - something about squirrels and roadkill and grilling iguanas? Both the kiddo and I agreed to skip. Odd choice for a kids book.
Anyway. Wouldn’t really recommend unless you cherry pick the stories you want to read, but not bad.
