I disagree with Allison Muller about her book review. I liked that book a lot! I thought the book was interesting. I know we all have different opinions, but many people who read it would like it. Who murdered who? Come on that was obvious, if you were paying attention. This book is not about Kung Foo fighting to have more action.

i love R. L. Stine but this book was a little lacking. it was a little strange and somewhat unbelievable. i know that Stine is a much better writter than this book shows but i guess that it just wasn't much in my taste. all in all it was still worth the couple hours that it took to read. this is more of a book that i would recomend checking out of the library instead of buying though. not to offend, but i think it would be better if you were younger not because being young means being stupid but that you have a better imagination and things are more believable. This would be really scarry for someone about 10 or maybe 11. I'm too old to be reading Fear Street books but still like them. So shoot me!

This was a very entertaining book. If you love to read about supernatural stories, you'll love this one! It really makes you wonder if some of these things can really occur. A real page turner! ENJOY!

Lea just moved to Shadyside. She moved to a house on Fear Street. But she has had a bad start at Shadyside high. During her first week she spilled chilly on Marci's white sweater. Marci is very popular at Shadyside. Lea had made an instant enemy of Marci just for tripping and spilling chilly. Lea did make one friend, Deena. Deena was fairly popular but really nice so she was glad to be Lea's friend. When Lea started cleaning up her mess of chilly a guy started helping her. He said his name was Don. Then he asked her out on a date. Lea was surprised and said yes. She went to sit down and told Deena. Deena said it was a joke because Don had been with Marci for a long time. Lea wasn't sure it was a joke she knew Don was asking her out. Deena told her just to watch out for Marci. When Lea moved into her house it was a major fix-upper. In the attic there was a boarded up bedroom that seemed to be a secret. The dealer said there was a scary story for each house on Fear Street. She said that the scary story for the bedroom was that there was a murder there. On the night Don was supposed to pick Lea up for the date he didn't come. So Lea called him. His mom picked up and said he was over at Marci's. So Lea called Marci without thinking and Marci picked up. Lea asked for Don and Marci laughed. She asked if Lea actually thought Don was going to go out with her. She said that she dared Don to ask Lea out but Don was hers. Lea was upset and Deena was right. As Lea started to go to sleep she heard stomps over her head coming from the bedroom in the attic. She decided to check it out. She went up to the attic and tried to pry the boards but then a waterfall of blood came through the top and flowed to the ground. Lea ran to the front room and called the police than her friend Deena. Deena convinced her it was a dream and came over to her house. They checked out the attic and nothing was there. There was no blood at all. Lea was confused; it couldn't be a dream it seemed too real. When the police got to her house Lea told them it was just a dream. Deena left and Lea just sat confused. The next day Marci was telling everyone about Lea actually thinking Don wanted to go out with her. Lea was very upset. When she got home she just lay down in her bed but she heard talking noises and footsteps above her again. She went up to the bedroom and tried to open it again. But then large gigantic spikes came out of it. Lea was scared to death. She ran downstairs and realized it was just a dream. The next day the noise annoyed her so much she decided to go up there and open it up so she went up there and pried it loose to find a girl about her age in a pretty room. But then Lea realized that the girl was floating and with very pale color... It was a ghost. The ghost says her name is Catherine. The problem is that Catherine wants to come back to life and the only way to do that would be to take over Lea's body and Catherine won't stop until she gets that...

This book is about a girl who lives in an old house, and there is a secret bedroom in which odd things happen (I won't tell you exactly what happens because I don't want to ruin it for you). But I will say that the things that happen are interesting and wants to keep you reading until you find out what exactly is going on.

The ending was very satisfying. We found out the "why's" and "how's" and all questions and curiosities were answered. I wish I could say more, but I don't want to spoil it.

This is a "teen horror", and I am an adult. I feel this book was entertaining and interesting enough for a child, teen, or an adult. This book is one of my favorite R.L. Stine books (that I am so crazy over, no matter how old I get).

The Secret Bedroom is definitely a book worth reading. The suspense is incredible and you just want to keep reading! I remember my mom used to come into my room and tell me to go to sleep because it would be 11:30 and I'd still be reading. Although this book lacks a real story and doesn't have that good of an ending, it is still a very creepy and spooky book. I got shivers. If you like a good scare, read this book! The only thing I didn't like about this book was the ending- you'll never guess it, but when it comes the story just falls. No more scares, no more turns, but still a good book!

This book was a very good book. I would have to say it was one of my favorite books ive read. It was mostly about where this girl moves to this one house and she discovers this room in the attic, she hears all kinds of noises and one night she go's up there and unboards the board on the door and she discovers this room. And a little girl is setting on the bed. She talkes to the girl on the bed...... I wont tell you anymore. You will have to read the book to find out what happens. Bye

It about Lea a girl who has move to a new house and starts to hear strange rumors from a secret room of the house.What appends next? Read the book and get to know.

This book has to be one of the best R.L. Stine books I have ever read. It had tons of twists in it, which I love in books! Well done!

THIS BOOK WAS A VERY INTERESTING AND SPOOKY BOOK!! I READ IT FOR A BOOK REPORT IN 8TH GRADE AND IT TURNED OUT TO BE FANTASTIC. IF YOU LOVE STORY'S ABOUT GHOSTS AND HAUNTED HOUSES, THIS IS THE BOOK FOR YOU! IT'S ABOUT A GIRL, LEA, WHO MOVES INTO FEAR STREET AND BECOMES AN ENEMY OF A POPULAR GIRL AT SCHOOL. SHE BECOMES FRIENDS WITH AN EVIL GHOST IN HER ATTIC AND LEAST EXPECTS IT THAT SHE'S EVIL. READ OUT TO FIND THE REST, IT'S VERY UNUSUAL BUT GOOD.
