5.0 out of 5 stars A really good story by R.l Stine, more a romance
I'm one of those ex- R.L Stine Holic.. I have 125 books of his (embarrassed expression on face). It starts off weel, and as it goes through to the end it is very well written. It has a great ending.. if only it hadn't of happened.. the thing to the ghost cause he rocked :) *shameful wink* ok.. yeah and grab some tissues, waterworks alert :) Also, if you are an ex-...

3.0 out of 5 stars Wasn't all that great.
This is a basic love story. It's not really that good. It's kind of confusing at times. But if you're a devout Stine fan, then I suggest reading it. Then again, usually Stine fans such as myself are hardly ever surprised when the ending rolls around.

4.0 out of 5 stars Another Gripping Horror by the Stephen King-for-YoungAdults., July 1, 2004
An angry ghosts haunts Melissa in her bedroom!He claims SHE killed him, but she has no memory of this!
Oddly, she then meets a living version of the avengeful ghost boy.And he is even scarier and meaner than his doppelganger.
How will Melissa protect herself from the living Paul and the dead one?How will she prove that she is NOT the killer?And why are there 2 of them anyway?
I could not keep my head out of it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Haunted By R.L Stine, May 28, 2004
By 
This review is from: Haunted (Turtleback)
I've read some good books and some bad books, but I have never read a book that sucked me right in and jumped to the main part like Haunted by R.L Stine. I enjoyed reading this book because it gave me the chills. For example, when Melissa is in her room asleep and wakes up to find a guy standing beside her bedroom window. When her parents come into her bedroom they can't seem to find any one inside or outside her bedroom window. Could she have been dreaming it or was it real? What about when Melissa is driving to her friend's house and hears her named whispered three times in her ear? Once she starts to freak out something takes control over her steering wheel and swerves to the right. She tries to gain control of the wheel when it swerves to the right again. Who or what is taking over the wheel when Melissa is all by her self in the car?
Through out the book Melissa tries to find out who this mysterious guy is and what it is he wants from her and why? R.L Stine has written other books but not as good and mysterious for teen as Haunted. That is why I enjoyed reading this book; all it's excitement and mystery.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun Book, March 4, 2008
A Fear Street prowler is on the loose, and Melissa is determined that he is in her bedroom and harrassing her. Her parents do not believe her. Is it her imagination, or is the prowler actually in her bedroom?

There are some fun adventures. You will keep wondering about this "prowler" until you reach the end; you will want to keep reading until you find out.

The end has a very interesting and unique twist. I liked the end. However, this book wasn't quite good enough to give 5 stars to. My favorite R.L. Stine books are "Hit and Run", "The Rich Girl", and my very favorites, "The Babysitter" (I-IV).

This is a good teen book, and I would recommend it to a teen. I would not recommend it to an adult, unless it is an adult who occasionally enjoys fun, less serious, teen books.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can Melissa stop a ghost from killing her?, December 26, 2005
Having read a few books from the Fear Street series, I decided to read a few move, including "Haunted" for fun.

There is a prowler in Fear Street who is breaking into everyone's houses and robbing them. Melissa Dryden, a teenager living in Fear Street is scared that they prowler might attack her family one day, and gets terrified when small things like tree branches hit her windows. Soon, she starts experiencing strange things like a shadow prancing in her room, her new car steering out of control, and someone trying to push her out of her bedroom window. No one believes her since they think she is imagining it because of her fear of the prowler. However, she knows that there is a ghost in her room trying to kill her, and she tries to get to the bottom of it by figuring out who he is, and how she can prevent him from killing her.

Although the ending was a little predictable, I still enjoyed reading this book because it had a lot of twists and turns. I found it really intriguing during the middle where Melissa is confused as to whether the ghost is really a ghost or not. What I also liked about it was the fact that it was simple enough to enjoy. Some of Stine's Fear Street stories tend to be really confusing, especially towards the end, but this story was fast paced and not complicated.

On the whole, I would rate this as one of the better Fear Street books that Stine has written. I would recommend this to anyone who likes reading ghost stories or is a fan of R. L. Stine's work.

5.0 out of 5 stars I Love This Book, November 9, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Haunted (Fear Street, No. 7) (Paperback)
I grow up reading R.L. Stine books. Even though I am 20yrs old, I still read his books. Haunted is my favorite. It is my favorite because it is a sad and romantic story. This book has excitement, love, death, fear all in one. I have read this book 4 times and I plan on reading it again.
