Yes, I know... Fear Street is a kiddie series done by R.L. "Goosebumps" Stine. And only the younger posters here might have read some of his stuff. Anyway, I'm selling all my (about 63) Fear Streets (that I can find) on ebay before I go to college. *sniffle* They may be cheesy pieces of literature now, but they sure were fun back then.

My fave story was prolly The Wrong Number... And maybe The Stepsister.

If anyone wants the link, you can ask and I will email it to ya. Dun wanna post it here.

Actually Fear Street is young adult and Goosebumps is for kiddies. Actually I read Fear Street books every once in awhile because Stine is a pretty good writer and he is not too juvenile and I have a thing for high school crap. I also do not like to read books that are too long especially on my breaks at work. People have said stuff to me about it actually teasing or what have you because I am an adult woman but I think it is damn funny because 1- an adult writes these books ( someone way older than me ) 2-I do not see those jerks making fun of me ever reading and 3- Those people talk like crap and write like a monkey so they can just bite me thank you very much!! Send me the link I will take a look! http://www.joblo.com/ubb/tongue.gif

I read a couple of the Fear Street novels ("The Wrong Number" and "The New Year's Party") to my 7th grade students, but they preferred THE NIGHTMARE ROOM series, escpecially "Locker 13". Also, "The Babysitter" and its sequels were pretty big hits, as was a collection of R.L. Stine's short stories "The Nightmare Hour".

Most of his stories are fast-paced cliffhangers, but nine times out of ten, Stine fails to come up with a decent ending or explanation of the strange goings-on in his stories.
