2.5 starsI only reread this one because I mean serious business about doing a full series reread of the "original" Goosebumps titles (where does that even end, though, I wonder? yet TBD), but I distinctly remembered reading this installment once and only once as a kid because I disliked it so much. I just think it's incredibly boring and apparently, that feeling hasn't changed in the 20-ish years since I first read it.Reread from childhood. It's cute. I remember it not being very scary as a kid, and of course it's less so now. It was still fun.
I try to express only my most honest opinion in a spoiler-free way. If you feel anything in my review is a spoiler and is not already hidden in spoiler brackets please let me know. Thank you.Another short but spooky story. My daughter just loves goosebumps. And I love the time we get to spend together every night when I read them to her. They are just the right amount of spookiness without giving her nightmares or keeping her up at night.With this one, she knew a lot of what was going to happen
My daughters and I recently read Goosebumps #1. Where that book was written in classic ghost story style, Stay Out of the Basement was much more modern. Where the first book had many gothic elements, this one was more typical of today's off beat horror works. The first book had a creepy feel the entire way through the book while number two just felt weird.One thing the books did have in common was a cliffhanger ending. Stine obviously uses this technique purposely. In the first book it felt very
The second book in the Goosebumps series, Stay Out Of The Basement, did not disappoint! What started out slightly slow picked up in a couple of chapters. On the surface this book is about a father who was recently been fired from his job, his obsession with making a scientific breakthrough, his descent into madness, and the two children suffering to learn their father's secrets. Stay Out Of The Basement is a brilliant combination of a story where Poison Ivy meets Frankenstein meets Little
Introducing my daughter to the wonderful world of horror. She loved it. l have always wanted to read these books. Now I have perfect excuse. Great fun.
Sooooo... Book two. I liked this story quite a bit more than the series opening book. It had some issues, but on the whole, it was a better story and made a hell of a lot more sense than Welcome to Dead House. The premise here is that the family moved to Cali for Dad to take a job in a science lab... but then his experiments started getting a little... strange and dangerous, and so he was let go. But he didn't care, he just kept up the work -- IN THE BASEMENT THAT EVERYONE SHOULD STAY OUT OF!
