In my opinion this book is awesome. My favorite story is The Curse Of The Mummy's Tomb. It is about this kid who was left with his uncle and they explore the pyramid. If you want to know what is going to happen read the story to figure out. I would recommend this book to everyone because there might be something everyone would like. And you would never know if there might be a big twist at the end.
I really enjoyed this book. Stine is an amazing author. How does he come up with this stuff. I mean a mirror that vanishes kids, a camera that makes bad things happen, and the mummies curse. It truly is a books that will give you goosebumps, and send a chill up your spine. It has so many details and adjectives. Also, the characters each have an amazing personality. I recommend this book to people who like books about horror.
