From the Publisher

The ghosts of Fear Street -- they'll haunt you forever!

Do you believe in ghosts? Don't say no until you take a walk down Fear Street. Past the woods -- where no birds sing. Past the lake -- where something lurks beneath the water. Past the cemetery -- where everyone is dying to meet you.

The cemetery. That's where Randy Clay has been invited for a game of hide-and-seek -- with a ghost. If the ghost tags her, Randy will lose more than the game. She'll become the newest ghost on Fear Street. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hide and Shriek a review by: Molly, December 12, 2002

By A Customer

Have you ever heard of a town where people play hide-and-go-seek for a dead little boy once a year? In the book Hide and Shriek by R.L. Stine a girl named Randy moves to a strange town on a street called Fear Street. Randy goes to school and sees a poster that says something about a boy's birthday. She heard many other students talking about the birthday. Her friend told her that they celebrate a boy named Pete's birthday once a year. All of the children in the town gather together and play a game of hide and seek.
Randy had to watch her little sister one night and saw a strange boy at the window and then he disappeared. Next Randy went to sleep over and asked her friends who Pete was. Her friends told her that Pete was a little boy who died and loved to play hide and seek. Her friend told her that you would play hide and seek on his birthday and in the woods at night. They told her that Pete's ghost would try to catch somebody and take over their body for a whole year. Randy thought that the strange boy was the person Pete had caught.
When the big day came almost every child in town came. Randy started to run and heard footsteps so she ran up a tree. She felt breathing on her neck and saw the strange boy. Randy ran to the cemetery and the boy followed. She saw Pete's grave and he told Randy he would take over her body. Little ghost children came and put Pete back in his grave forever. Randy and the strange boy were shocked and wondered if Pete would return again and take over someone else's body.
Will Pete play again? You have to read this book because you will be on the edge of your seat!

5.0 out of 5 stars He's Gonna Get You, December 21, 2002

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Hide and Shriek (Ghosts of Fear Street #1) (Paperback)

Randi is in trouble. In the book, Randi has just moved to Shadyside. When she comes, everyone is talking about someone named Pete. At first, Randi thinks he's the popular kid in school until she hears the stories about Pete's disapearence and how every year he takes someone's body. And how he likes new kids. Then the only advice she can give to new kids is to tell them "He's gonna get you". That is if she can survive the year where she'll eat worms?
