The Scarecrow Walks at Midnight (Goosebumps – 20) by R.L. Stine (Epub)

Description

Jodie loves visiting her grandparents’ farm. Grandpa tells great scary stories and grandma’s chocolate chip pancakes are the best, but this summer, the farm has really changed. The cornfields are sparse. Grandma and grandpa seem worn out and the single scarecrow has been replaced by the twelve evil-looking ones. One night Jodie sees something really odd. The scarecrows seems to be moving, twitching on their stakes, coming alive.

⭐ The Scarecrow Walks at Midnight was one of the best original Goosebumps books to show a mature sense of suspense. Jodie, Mark, and most on the family farm feel like real people rather than the simplified caricatures you usually expect of the series.[*] Their jokes were real jokes — which is essential for getting the reader on the heroes’ side. Siblings Jodie and Mark contrast well with one another — Jodie’s the outdoors-y, adventurous one to Mark’s backpack-full-of-Gameboy-cartridges lazy-bones. The mystery, too, was nearly impossible to guess, with so many threads both mundane and dangerously occult to tug at the reader’s suspicions.Jodie and Mark are spending their summer vacation on their grandparents’ farm. It’s an annual event viewed with excitement: Hidden fishing holes, a large farm to explore, fresh chocolate pancakes every morning, ghost stories before bed, the perfect hanging lounge chair for a day of nothing but Gameboy! Yeah!Summer of 1994, however, their normally-loving and attentive grandparents are oddly reserved; they barely speak a word to our heroes, and when they do, it’s to be dismissive, yet genuine and caring. Stanley, the farmhand, has a new passion for the occult, including an uncomfortable obsession with rows and rows of scarecrows he’s convinced are alive. From there, the confusion over what the junk is going on, and if anyone’s in danger, escalates.The large scale of the mystery brings about some of the pacing issues. There wasn’t enough room to wrap up the story, so it peters out all at once in a miraculous, random action. On a lighter note, the sudden ending also contributes a sense of mythology to the book, leaving the reader imagine if things are really over or just beginning. As the twentieth book, however, it still gave the impression that the series wasn’t losing steam anytime soon.[*]I say ‘most’ because Stanley, the farmhand, toes the line in portraying people with special needs as completely ridiculous. His comic ignorance and “suspicion book” felt out-of-place against the other characters.

⭐ I write a lot of reviews and also write pulp fiction (Mystery and Horror).Therefore, I read in many different genres.I read, The Scarecrow Walks at Midnight, with my Granddaughter (she loves Goosebumps).And even though it is not quite a Halloween tale, we made it one ( since we read it in October).I am looking forward to reading more books in this series, as my Granddaughter has already pickedout a few more.So, I will be back to do more reviews, after we have read them.Keep ’em coming.

⭐ I received mine from Amazon in perfect condition, no rips, or creases on the cover or pages within. The cover has some gorgeous artwork, that helps you visualize while reading.The paper quality is top notch on the inside as well, and if you’re a Goosebumps fan, you KNOW the story is as well. Highly recommended!

⭐ I love the writing style. Couldn’t stop reading. Super scary. One of my favorite horror books.

⭐ My son is 10 and he is fascinated by these books. He really enjoyed this book and can’t wait to find another one to read. What a great gift for kids who love that fantasy to get them interested in reading.

⭐ Good overall. I was a little disappointed with the ending, expecting more of a twist! Enjoyed reading what was actually going on with the scarecrow and who was in control.

⭐ My 9 year old son is addicted to Goosebumps books! He has an entire bookshelf dedicated to them. I remember reading them as a kid and I loved them too. According to him, this is one of his favorites.
