4.0 out of 5 stars Silent Night Or Murder Night?, October 4, 2003

This review is from: Silent Night (Fear Street Super Chillers, No. 2) (Mass Market Paperback)

December is a very special month where everyone lives in peace and harmony, especially for the Christmas holidays. Reva Dalby, the daughter of the wealthy owner of Dalby Department Store, is not having her best December, though. Someone starts sending her weird little presents, she finds a needle in her lipstick, and yes, someone wants her dead. She has committed bad actions before and has done bad things to other people. Reva has everything anyone could want and does not think that something bad can actually happen to her. But soon she realizes how wrong she was. Then the horror begins.

Reva is one of my favorite R.L. Stine characters. She's quite different from other main characters in other R.L. Stine books. If you want to read something different from R.L. Stine, you should read this book. You won't want to put it down.

This review is from: Silent Night (Fear Street Super Chillers, No. 2) (Mass Market Paperback)

Silent Night is a great book that shows R.L. Stine at his best! The main character is so mean that its funny to hear what she has to say about people. This is suspensful and worth your time.

5.0 out of 5 stars A super-chiller for all horror readers!, January 6, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Silent Night (Fear Street Super Chillers, No. 2) (Mass Market Paperback)

"Silent Night" by R.L.Stine holds many suspenseful and surprising moments. One of my favorite parts was when Reva, the main character, gets gifts that are sent to terrify her. The card she gets with everyone of them reads: "Happy Holidays From A Friend."

This Christmas horror is so realistic that I actually felt like I was one of the characters. The ending is very unpredictable. The villians were the last that I suspected. Reva changes from cold-hearted to good-hearted by the end of the book. The death of a loved one makes Reva act the way she does. I can understand why she would try to act brave and tough, but I don't understand how she could be so cruel.

The setting was perfect for the book and added quite a bit to its suspensefulness. This book was one of the best I've read. I reccomend this spine-tingling tale to anyone who likes horror stories. I look forward to reading both sequels to "Silent Night."
