While Christopher Pike has been popular among older teen readers for decades, he's expanded his books to a younger audience of readers (8 - 12 year olds), in his recent series called Spooksville, which has some similarities to R. L. Stine's Goosebumps and Fear Street books.

In this third book in the series, four friends (Adam, Watch, Sally, and Cindy) go into the Haunted Cave in search of man's evolutionary missing link--something that's part human, part ape. However, three of them get trapped inside the cave without a way out, stuck on an endless trail of bloodthirsty trolls and bats and impending death, while the remaining friend tries to find a way to rescue them.

I thought "The Haunted Cave" was more of an adventure story than a horror story--and definitely not as bloody or provocative as some of Pike's older teen books; so this book is appropriate for all ages, particularly preteens. Still, I prefer his other books.

There is a mysterious cave at Spooksville. So Adam and his friends enter the cave. When they went to far, they decided to get out but there was no way out. Something scary is also after them, A monster that is trapped in the cave.

Good fun reading for anyone who likes stories of underground adventure. This book reminded me of another great book--Steward's, "Tales of Dirt, Danger, and Darkness." Buy this book!

Adam , Sally and Cindy were exploring the cave when the door of the cave started to close watch was outside the cave and he was shouting to them to get out the three started to run but there was no chance to escape. They decide to continue exploring when a creature appear and try to kill Cindy but Sally save she..

Hey someone who have read Creppy Creatures, Phone Fear or Witch give, please can tell me what happened. I live in Mexico and here the book finished to number#21 and I'm very anxious to know what happened, if Adam and Olos are boyfriends or if bryce and Cindy still be boyfriends really I need to know
