This book was super, and I didn't find the ending too scary at all. In fact, not to give anything away, the ending is the BEST part about the book--and the quirky illustrations. A good one and not just for the brave at heart.

Creep Show is perfect for the child who feels the other Eek! series aren't scary enough. It's the story of a boy who fears a spooky old movie theater, yet is fascinated by the titles and signs that seem to appear just for him. Exciting enough to hold an older child's interest.

Kids stay away from the old Star Theatre...seems someone died there years ago. Now a boy has a strange desire to go to the deserted theatre alone. Not only is he the only customer in the audience, he is really IN the movies on screen! He has several close calls, appearing in a dangerous surfing movie and a baseball movie. Then, he appears in something really scary..! This is the best Eek book so far; a big hit with 7-9 year old boys, especially. It's easy to read, fast-paced, and has creepy illustrations showing a regular kid in extraordinary situations. Your child will enjoy being scared over and over again.

I bought this book for my 7 year old son. For the most part, we both enjoyed the book. But the ending was just a little too free to interpretation for my liking. I like the ending to be final for kids. They make up their own endings that are a lot more frightening to them.
