Wordy Words on WordsWhen I originally read this, I was impressed that the kid could basically fall asleep on command. I’m pretty quick to fall asleep and my wife gets pretty jealous of it, but I can’t just zonk out when I’m super stressed about things - like I can only imagine this kid was.<br>
<br>
And I really enjoyed the fever dream state of this book. Absolutely dreadful episode of the show, but the book was good.<br>
<br>
Except for one thing: You know how in movies they sometimes try to be cute and slip in names as an homage to the movie-maker’s influences? Like how in Friday the 13th, Tommy was at Karloff’s Garage? Or how in Scream, Rose McGowan said “Wes Carpenter?”<br>
<br>
And you know how it NEVER feels natural? These names are critical to the point where they seem almost unique to that individual. Are there other people named Wes? Sure! But in the context of horror movies, is there really any other Wes? Or a Karloff? <br>
<br>
It takes me right out of the story. <br>
<br>
It’s even harder in books because I can’t exactly read when my eyes are rolling in my head. <br>
<br>
That said, Stine has avoided it almost entirely until this book. He fell HARD in this book.<br>
<br>
Two characters. One named Bruce. One named Wayne. They’re always together so it’s “Bruce said,” “Wayne added.”<br>
<br>
Ugh.<br>
<br>

Wordy Words on WordsIt’s fine.<br>
<br>
It’s actually got a pretty decent story to it where a local haunted house, Hill House (not to be confused with THE Hill House), is constantly toured by two little pranksters. The tour guide tells the tale of how the house was built by a seaman who led this side there and, after he never came back, she ran away. Then his ghost appeared, roaming the halls with a light looking for her.<br>
<br>
Pretty cool.<br>
<br>
Then a boy accidentally finds where the ghost is hiding (ghosts just hide places. What did you think they did? DISAPPEAR?) and told him now HE can’t leave, rips the kid’s head off (not gory, he just REMOVES the head like a toy crash test dummy) and hides it.<br>
<br>
Then the seaman leaves.<br>
<br>
Which is hilarious.<br>
<br>
Anyway, is the ghost of the kid roams the house.<br>
<br>
A new kid tells them he’s seen the ghosts and convinces them to join him there at night where he confesses that he is the headless ghost. He’s been borrowing this head (as one does) and needs to return it, which is just good manners. But now he wants the boy prankster’s head!<br>
<br>
The kids flee, stumble into hidden rooms or whatever and find the ACTUAL head. Then the ghost appears, reunited with the head, and fades away.<br>
<br>
Weird that the headless ghost wasn’t just hiding somewhere.<br>
<br>
Anyway, turns out this new kid is the tour guide’s nephew and they all leave.<br>
<br>
Decent story.<br>
<br>
But then Stine fucked it up because he just COULD NOT resist.<br>
<br>
WEEKS go by and the kids take one last tour only to find cops waiting for them outside asking what they were doing. They said taking the tour.<br>
<br>
“But it went out of business MONTHS ago. You must have been getting tours from ghosts!”<br>
<br>
And, sure enough, the tour guide and his wife are in the window, ghosts.<br>
<br>
Pretty sure those chunks of time need to be reversed to make any sense since other people were on these tours.<br>
<br>
Or he could have just stopped when it made sense!<br>

Wordy Words on WordsDo you remember how the first Haunted Mask was basically about the power of love?<br>
<br>
This isn’t that.<br>
<br>
Oh man, but I thought it would be! It was lining itself up SO perfectly for it.<br>
<br>
You one of the little bastards from the first book who, for punishment, has to coach a whole team of even smaller little bastards - you know, like what happens at EVERY elementary school, right? A child given the responsibility of being the sole coach to a group of even smaller children? Parents are TOTALLY down for this.<br>
<br>
Anyway, he hates these kids and he wants to scare them so he goes to the same place the last girl got her mask (ignoring her warnings) and found this old man mask.<br>
<br>
Where the first mask made the girl slowly turn mean, this one just makes him into an old man. Walking becomes a challenge, talking is harder, etc.<br>
<br>
And then he sees his team of kids and goes to them.<br>
<br>
Now, *I* thought that they would help this old man out while talking about how they give their coach a hard time but that’s only because they feel so comfortable and trust him so much - that they really look up and love him.<br>
<br>
Nope. They fucked right off.<br>
<br>
This kid goes through the expected agony and the love trick from the first one doesn’t work for him.<br>
<br>
Bummer.<br>
<br>
What DOES work is reuniting the mask with its matching suit.<br>
<br>
Logic.<br>
<br>
At which point the whole suit and mask come to life and boogies out of the building like a character of Thunderbirds (the puppet show).<br>
<br>
I think it’s a really weak book BUT I actually think it might be the best sequel so far in the series.<br>
<br>
…Yup. Pretty sure. What else was there? Slappy? Come on. Monster Blood? Ugh - hell no.<br>
<br>
No, this is the best one so far.<br>

Wordy Words on WordsI won’t lie: I rolled my eyes at the cover, but this is actually one of the better ones in the series (which is nice since we’re so deep in it at this point). The premise is that the daughter of a ride designer and her best friend get to go on a tour of a new ride that focuses on the Shock Street horror movies. <br>
<br>
And it goes horribly wrong (as you could guess).<br>
<br>
There was a clever misdirect in the beginning where the daughter asks if they should take her mother on the ride as well and the dad says something like “excuse me, young lady?” Like she did something wrong.<br>
<br>
“The mom must be dead,” I thought. Then everything after that was based around that until the best friend keeps harping on the fact that all these monsters must be robots because the girl’s dad is so great at making them. Then the friend pulled the girl out of a mud pit with strong arms and I thought “he’s a robot!”<br>
<br>
“A robot that was made to be the girl’s best friend after her mom died!”<br>
<br>
But I was wrong. Well. Partially wrong. Both kids were robots. The reason it was suspicious when she asked about her mom is that she didn’t have a mother.<br>
<br>
I’ll admit it: I was fooled.<br>
<br>
When you sit back and think about it, it IS weird that the trial run of the ride to see if it’s the right level of scary was done with two robot kids because… they’re robots. What real data are they going to give? Also, don’t robots famously not have emotions?<br>
<br>
I also wonder why the robots were allowed to live lives that were at LEAST normal enough that they went to movie theaters and watched movies. Or were the memories false the whole time?<br>
<br>
I 👏🏼 have 👏🏼 ques 👏🏼 tions. 👏🏼<br>
<br>
Still. A good one for sure.<br>

Wordy Words on WordsI’m actually kind of curious about this because I always thought I was up to date on these as a kid but I distinctly remember reading this one WAY before Attack of the Mutant.<br>
<br>
Oh well.<br>
<br>
This cover actually scared me as a kid honestly, but I can’t remember finishing it.<br>
<br>
And I feel like I definitely would have remembered finishing it because this is probably the dumbest entry so far.<br>
<br>
It’s another body swap book where kids become dogs and then do… ugh. Just the most idiotic things in the world.<br>
<br>
One of them is like “I have to tell my parents what happened but I can’t talk. Because I’m a dog.<br>
<br>
“I know! I’LL WRITE THEM A LETTER.”<br>
<br>
Bro, I don’t know how to break this to you, so I’ll do it as gently as possible:<br>
<br>
You are a DOOOOOGGGGGG!<br>
<br>
Sure enough he tries to grab a pen and uh-oh! No thumbs! That’ll throw a wrench in the ol’ letter-writing works!<br>
<br>
But that’s this whole book. Dumb idea after dumb idea and when the end comes you hope whatever head injury Stine suffered while writing this has worn off and that maybe the next book will be better.<br>
<br>
Also, as an adult I think what I was scared of with the cover were the eyes because the way too-small mouth never got me. That thing killing you would be a logical challenge - at least for long enough to make your escape.<br>
<br>
