Can You Keep a Secret?

  15. Someone grabbed my arm. Callie. Her eyes were wide with alarm. “Emmy? Are you okay?” I blinked at her. It took me a while to realize my mouth hung wide open. I closed it, breathing hard, my chest fluttery, blinking more, struggling to make her come into focus. “Emmy? What’s wrong?” She held...

Nightmare Hour (1999)

That’s a question everyone asks me. Actually, anything can suggest a story to me. This story came from one sentence I overheard. One sentence was all I needed to imagine what I think may be my most stomach-churning story ever. The sentence? I overheard it on a city bus. Two boys were talking in t...

The Scarecrow Walks at Midnight (1994)

The bright moon bathed us in white light. The tall cornstalks shivered in a light breeze. Mark looked so much like a scarecrow, it was scary. Tufts of straw stuck out at his neck and the cuffs of his coat. The enormous old coat hung loosely over his shoulders and came down nearly to his knees. We...

Werewolf Skin

Pressed myself flat on my stomach. My chest heaved. I breathed through my mouth, struggling to keep perfectly still, perfectly silent. Did they see me? Did they? I raised my head enough to peer out at them beneath the bottom branch of the bush. They had their fur-covered snouts raised. They sniff...

Chicken Chicken

“Chicken chicken.” I gasped as if I’d been slapped. The street tilted in front of me. Then it started to spin. What on earth did she mean? Why did she say that? Cole and I didn’t wait to ask her. Our sneakers thudded the pavement as we took off, running at full speed. I glimpsed the old hound dog...

Monster Blood IV

No. The mouse was part of the dream. I’m still half in my dream, half awake, Evan realized, blinking his eyes. He shook himself hard. Shook himself awake. The mouse faded slowly, then vanished. And Evan stared at the window, stared at Andy outside in the darkness. Tapping on the glass. Tapping so...

My Best Friend Is Invisible

A fancy chandelier hung from the ceiling directly over our heads. Crystals in the shape of teardrops dangled from it. Crystals draped in a thick layer of dust and cobwebs. It felt icy cold in here. Much colder than outside. A sour odor rose up to greet us. I shivered. I groped for a light switch,...

I Live in Your Basement

I stared at her in horror. Gwynnie grinned. “The basement is filled with people!” she exclaimed. “Dozens of them. They call themselves The Basement Club. They stay down there until we all leave.

Welcome to Dead House (1992)

The air felt heavy and damp. Josh was fussing with Petey’s collar and still didn’t see what was happening. I wondered if Ray was going to say anything, if he was going to do anything to stop them.

Goosebumps: The Blob That Ate Everyone

Adam had run out of the house. I didn’t care about Adam now. I only cared about one thing. What did he type on the old typewriter? I grabbed the sheet of paper—and pulled it from the roller.

Deep Trouble II

But I didn’t fall. The strong hands didn’t let go. I felt myself pulled back into the boat—as a dark shadow swept overhead. “Huh?” I blinked several times. Was it a shadow—or my eyes?

Dr. Shein usually sat behind her glass desk, tapping her pencil on the desktop or chewing on the eraser while I talked.

Goosebumps: The Curse of Camp Cold Lake

I tried to tug away. My wet arm slid in her grasp. But her grip tightened around my wrist. And she held on. Pulling me. Pulling me with her. “Owww!” She was strong.

Coach Hurley leaned over him, his eyes narrowed with concern. “You okay?” he demanded, staring at Brandt’s arm. “That’s a nasty-looking bruise.

Scare School (2001)

Grabbing the side of the door, I tugged it open all the way—and let out a cry of shock when I saw the imp. I stared hard at him. No way was he some kind of puppet. Or a kid dressed in a costume. He was definitely an imp! The creature had his head down as he bent over, searching the floor of my lo...
