⭐ Like all R.L. Stein books, this one is fun scary. Gets young kids into reading which is what everyone’s goal should be.

⭐ Good quality, delivered on time, exactly what my son wanted.

⭐ Arrived quickly and as described

⭐ 8 year old daughter loves them and dad get’s lots of hugs and kisses when he buys them so it’s a win win situation. 🙂

⭐ I got this book to try and finish my goosebumps collection I had from the 90’s. I have not read this book yet but look forward to reading it soon

⭐ Good book. I read it with my little brother.

⭐ My son absolutely love these books and it came in a timely manner and great condition

⭐ Book was in poor condition. Not very please just for the fact that it was labeled in very good condition.

⭐ The 37th Goosebumps entry may be the first traditional horror tale in the series since the 1992 opener, Welcome to Dead House. There’s little of R.L. Stine’s Mad Magazine humor here, as friends Duane and Stephanie go ghost-hunting in the town’s haunted mansion. After a year of haunting the local youngsters with practical jokes and made-up horror stories, they’re taking things to the next level by trying to haunt the one place ghosts already exist.The majority of the story is spent sneaking through the mansion’s nooks and crannies after dark. 100 years ago, a young boy was murdered by a ghost in the mansion, and his head hidden away where no one could find it. Since that day, the boy himself has joined the ranks of the mansion’s ghosts, forever seeking his lost head. Duane, Stephanie, and their new friend Seth are out to find the boy’s head among the mansion’s secrets.The nights searching are paranoid: the house full of cold spots, disembodied voices, bloody secrets, and sadness. The ghostly sightings themselves are reserved for key moments when they’d pack the biggest wallop. It’s pretty rare for Stine to hold back like this, and the pacing of the scares really sets the Headless Ghost apart from the usual Goosebumps formula. It’s a thoroughly enjoyable yarn, and a favorite for the Halloween season, for sure.

⭐ Synopsis: Stephanie Alpert and Duane Comack are two sixth graders, who love to haunt the kids in their neighborhood, where they are called the Twin Terrors’. The only part of the neighborhood they don’t haunt is Hill House.Hill House is the biggest attraction in Wheeler Falls because it is said to be haunted. They say that a ghost roams around the halls looking for his missing head. One day, Stephanie decides that the tricks they pull on the neighborhood kids is too boring, and that they should go searching for the missing head of the ghost in Hill House. Duane doesn’t really like the idea, but agrees to go with Stephanie anyway.They reach Hill House and join a tour group to go inside. Duane notices a boy in the group staring at then intensely, but she doesn’t know why. Soon, they part from the group and start searching for the head. They go to the top floor, where they have never been before, and enter a room. The room has a doorway to another room, and soon they find themselves lost amongst the rooms. When they reach outside one of the rooms, they hear laughing and cheers inside, but when they open the door, there is no one there.Later, Stephanie and Duane notice the boy staring at them again. He introduces himself as Seth and tells them that he is just visiting. He tells them that he sneaked inside Hill House late one night after the tour groups and saw the ghost, and asks Stephanie and Duane if they want to see it too. Stephanie agrees and so does Duane, reluctantly. Is Seth really who he claims to be, or is he someone who is after Stephanie and Duane? Will the Twin Terrors be able to face their latest challenge, without losing their heads as well?Review: I thought this was a fun book to read. It was a little slow in the beginning, but soon, it starts to get interesting once Stephanie and Duane start searching the house.I liked how Stine described the history behind Hill House, because the history itself seemed to have some twists to it. Some parts of the book were very interesting to read, like when Duane and Stephanie hear cheering inside one of the rooms, or when they find themselves running from Seth. It also had a good twist to it that made it a worthwhile Goosebumps book to read.The only reason I was slightly disappointed with this book was because I felt like nothing really happened with the plot of the story until Seth introduced himself, which was in the second half of the story. Even though the first half of the book had some suspenseful moments, nothing really happened in the first half of the story except the Twin Terrors getting lost in the house for a while. I feel like if Seth was introduced into the story early on, and was with Stephanie and Duane while they checked out the top floors, this would have been an amazing Goosebumps book to read and definitely in my list amongst the top Goosebumps books.Nevertheless, the book was entertaining to read throughout, because in the first half of the book, we read more about the creepy history behind Hill House, and how Stephanie and Duane try to escape the rows of rooms they get trapped in. The second half becomes a thrilling roller coaster ride as Stephanie and Duane reenter Hill House and get the shock of their lives.Overall, this is not a book I would consider as being one of the best Goosebumps books written, but it is definitely a good one.
