Don’t Stay Up Late ending explanation?

Ok so I just read “Don’t Stay Up Late” and I loved it-what I didn’t love was the cliffhanger ending. I HATE not having answers at the end of a book. I couldn’t find any answers online and I was wondering if there is any explanation behind Harry reappearing as “Sam” at the end of the story? Does this lore ever get revisited? I mean it just seems strange there wasn’t anything to clarify what happened to the other creatures as well.. and if the police took him, how did he manage to escape?

Fear Street List & Broken Date

I’m trying to compile a checklist of the Point Horror snd Fear Street Books, but I’m running into some weird stuff.

Wikipedia doesn’t list Enter Three Witches, Ghost Abbey, etc. in its Point Horror list. Nightmare Hall only goes to #15, but there’s a lot more NH after that…

Then I get to Broken Date. It’s published by Archway like Fear Street is, not Scholastic’s Point imprint, and its on Goodreads as Fear St #8, but no, the first few Fear St all say “Fear Street”, and Broken Date doesn’t. Not part of the series? What’s the deal?

Looking to collect books

Hello!

15 years ago probably I was in a book store and bought some of the Seniors series. I had read some of the fear street books as well. I have now decided I would like to collect them and of course reread.

I have found several “sets” on eBay however I will obviously end up with duplicates buying that way. I have two questions:

  1. Where else is good for finding the books that would be inexpensive?

  2. Where is a good place to resell the ones I end up with multiples of? Of course eBay but what other options. (I am not looking to profit. Just don’t see a point in have 2-3 copies of one.) Or is this a dumb idea? Is there even that many people looking for these? Lol

Thank you in advance! 🫶🏼

So did Sarah Fier possess Deena?

In that whole confrontation, she starts making Nick see all those murders and the victims before appearing infront of him and killing him, but then it shows that Deena did it.

Fear Street 1994 Question

During the movie, Sheriff Goode pushes a note saying "It's Happening Again" into the mailslot of who is later revealed to be C. Berman. What did he refer to with the note, exactly?

99 Fear Street scared me!

I've read a lot of books, Stephen King included, and none of them scared me but this is the first one that actually freaked me out a little. I think because RL Stine has a way of making the characters relatable to the real world, and have a common setting that including freaky stuff feels real. I actually locked my door before going to bed 😂

Did the bread slicer seem totally out of place?

I watched Fear Street Part 1 last night. It was enjoyable. Didn’t blow me away but I appreciated it for what it was.

However, the bread slicer death just felt completely out of place to me. The whole film had minimal gore: sure, a couple of stabs and slices, but nothing gory or really impactful in terms of killing. Then suddenly you’ve got a person’s head being sliced into pieces.

If you removed the bread slicer death, there really isn’t anything in the movie you wouldn’t see in a Goosebumps book. It kind of felt like someone took a Goosebumps book, made it into a movie, but then just randomly added one Saw/Final Destination death for shock value.

It just seemed really out of place compared to the rest of the film. Or maybe it’s just me

Fear Street Reissue

Looks like we'll be getting at least 2 Ghosts of Fear Street books reissued. I have a feeling they'll atleast do a few more, but I wish they were reissuing from the original Fear Street line, or better yet the Fear Street Sagas.

Discord/Group Chat for Fear Street Fans

Is there a group chat or a discord for fans of RL Stine? Or even for fans of YA books? I love reading them but I wish there was people I could discuss the books with.

Pls let me know! Thanks!

A single plot twist that accidentally makes Silent Night hard to adapt into a film

Okay so I was re listening silent night audiobook for the up coming winter season and was thinking it would be cool if fear street had the goosebumps treatment of getting a TV show adapting the books. Then I got to the part again where it was revealed that Pam’s boyfriend Foxy (I think that was his name) was the mall Santa. Before that twist, I didn’t think they were the same people as I thought Foxy was some skinny guy that Pam was partners with. So if they were to adapt the books, how would the plot twist would go and how would they hide that Foxy and the mall Santa are the same people?

Did anyone else have a crush on a character?

I did on Cara from Missing. I thought she looked cute in the picture, and she has more personality than most of the protagonists. Also Lisa Blume (from multiple books, including that one). She sounded pretty from the description, and I like her personality as well (she's pretty sarcastic and snarky, but still a nice girl.)

Who is the most sympathetic victim in the series?

I would say Cally from 99 Fear Street, as she seems like quite a nice girl, and she not only dies, but becomes a malevolent ghost as well. At least most of the victims just died (and presumably went to the afterlife).

Idea: a Fear Street video game

With Goosebumps getting a lot of games, l'm surprised nobody thought about making a Fear Street game. It could be like GTA (or Bully) with horror elements and missions based after each books (like The Wrong Number or the Cheerleaders trilogy).

If you made a Fear Street book, what would it be about?

I would make one where Reva has a change of heart for real and becomes a good person. I would have her almost die and have a near-death experience where she goes to the afterlife (which I assume exists, if ghosts do) and would meet her mother, who would tell her she still loves her. After she was revived she'd decide to be a good person from then on, although given how awful she was, I suspect a lot of people wouldn't forgive her.
