From the Back Cover

When Grady's family moves out of the city and into a rickety old house in Fever Swamp, both he and his sister Emily find a lot to complain about: they have no friends, no neighbors and nothing to do. Then Grady meets the only other kid around, Will Blake, who tells him the legend of the swamp and about the werewolf responsible for the mysterious disappearances of many former residents. Although Grady is afraid the legend may be true, his parents and sister refuse to believe it... until the next full moon.

3.0 out of 5 stars Okay movie, July 12, 2005

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Goosebumps - The Werewolf of Fever Swamp [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The first half of the movie was sort of boring. I've never actually really felt the need to watch it. Whenever I want to watch Goosebumps on video, this would be the last one I would watch. But, overall, it's an okay movie, worth renting (If you can find it in stores).

5.0 out of 5 stars Just as good as the book..., October 2, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Goosebumps - The Werewolf of Fever Swamp [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Even though I'm a teenager now, I remember watching this video in my sixth grade guidence counseling class at school. It was pretty good, at least that's what I thought. And I was right - I still think "The Werewolf of Fever Swamp" is a good video. To make the summary of the video short and sweet, it's about this kid named Grady who lived with his family up in Burlington, Vermont but then they had to move down to the Florida Swamps because his parents (who were scientists) were studying these deer that were from another country and wanted to see if they could survive in America. Grady finds this dog (that looks like a wolf) and gets to keep it. When he meets another kid named Will Blake, Will tells him all about the werewolf and why they call the swamps, Fever Swamp. Soon, bad things start happening to Grady and his family and everybody blames Grady's dog for it. But then Grady discovers the truth about who's the real werewolf.

If you liked "The Werewolf of Fever Swamp" the video, then you'll love the book. It's almost exactly the same as the video. Which is actually a good thing because I don't like it when movies or TV shows change the books that they are based on around a little too much. Then you have a hard time figuring out which is the right version of the story.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Movie to "DIE" for!, April 2, 2000

If you like a movie that is scary and suspenseful then you have found the right movie. I like The part when Grady's sister and mom go in the barn, and the werewolf tries to get in.
