Rating: 2 stars
Summary: good novel, dumb ending
Review: 99 Fear Street is a good series, and this is a good book, but the end of it is so incredibly stupid that I found myself disgusted with the whole thing. What I had a problem with was the reason the house was evil. It was ridiculous. I won't spoil it for you in case you want to read this book, which isn't bad except for the last few chapters.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: 99 Fear Street: The First Horror: The Book Is Amazing!
Review: 99 Fear Street is the best series yet! The R.L. Stine sets off the stage of reading is incredible! The way Kody is jealous of her so perfect sister Callie, and the way the family ends up after the ending.

Read this book, it's amazing, exciting, and way to cool. This book is TIGHT!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: What A Book!
Review: 99 Fear Street: The Second Horror is fantastic. The way author wrote the story is way too cool. And their alot questions that pop into your mind about Brandt's condition. WWhy can't he play basketball, and you know what Brandt's thoughts are too. And his condition is very mysterious. Some ways the book is funny because two girls are trying to hook up with him.

You just have to read this book. Some of you might think it does not fit into the trilogy, but it does have a reson because it show that the way Callie's spirit has agressive into a spiteful person!

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: First Book in the 99 Fear Street: The House of Evil Series
Review: Cally Frasier and her family have just moved to Shadyside and bought the 99 Fear Street house. Following their arrival, a lot of accidents occur: a tree branch nearly falls on Cally, a window slams on Kody's (Cally's twin sister) hands, their father accidentally stabs himself, Kody falls off a ladder, and Cubby (the family's new puppy) is missing, yet they can still hear his barking and howls in the house. Plus, someone or something has been knocking on Cally's bedroom door late at night. Kody insists the house is haunted or cursed--and she just may be right when a local teen tells them about their house's history. Thirty years ago, when it was being built, several burial plots were found where the foundation would be poured. Instead of ceasing work, they continued with the job, which resulted in a mysterious massacre of the family that moved in. Thus the evil curse of 99 Fear Street. Will the Frasier family follow the previous owners' fate--or will they escape in time to save their lives?

I had started this series because I had heard it was supposed to be pretty good; however, I thought it was quite disappointing. (This can be said for most of the R. L. Stine books I've read.) For starters, the horror scenes in this book are almost comical; they're just flat-out ridiculous sometimes and not very scary at all. Sure they're bloody in parts, but each character pretty much reacts in the same manner by saying "Nooo!", "Owww!", or some other nonsense expression we obviously know they'd say when attacked or hurt. Plus the way each chapter ends with a cliff-hanger is so predictable and tedious. A little variation, please! Bad things don't need to happen in every chapter.

Although the Fear Street books are geared for preteens, I don't think most young adult readers will be as frightened by these books as, say, elementary children (10 years and younger). So, I'd probably only recommend these books to younger readers. If you enjoyed "The First Horror" though, then you might like the following two books in this series: "The Second Horror" and "The Third Horror". Otherwise, try the Fear Street Saga. That trilogy is much better than this one.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: the House of evil
Review: Hi my name is star. And i the this book is cool. But it takes to long to get into the story. Although the book is pritty good i give it 4 stars.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The First Horror was so creepy and diabolical, I loved it.
Review: I liked this book a lot, though I found some parts to be very diabolical and almost too creepy. It does set a great tone for a haunted house. The things that happen to the family though from the house were just so horrible too!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Liked it, but...
Review: I liked this book pretty well, for it's creavtivity. I give it credit for taking on a whole new character and building a story line around it. But at the same time, I resented the book for doing that. I think it should have stayed more toward the first family and how it is effecting them all now. Though, now that I think about it, I don't see how 99 Fear street is some much effecting the guy's situation. His past situation doesn't make much sense in this book, why would his past have to do so much in this book?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Thriller!
Review: I love this book it is so suspenceful and is so spookey I think it is a great book for when it is raining and you curl up in bed and read give your self a real scare
