Not all is scary, though. Still just as good as my 90s memories. Downright Creepy. Usually I would've re-read this in October, but since the movie was coming out I had to crack this scary motherfucker open for the hundredth time. I probably appreciated them when I was a kid, because I was also the girl who read all the joke books from my library. I can't wait to see the movie this Tuesday and film a Book VS Movie video on it, I think it's going to be a lot of fun. I spent my parents' hard earned money at scholastic book fairs, as an elementary school kid, on all three of the individual "Scary Stories" collections. Still awesome! Fiebre Lectora.
