This was an interesting story. I liked it because I love goosebumps books and movies. I've always liked "scary stories" My mom and brothers never understand that though... This book was about a kid finding a typewriter in a rundown shop and starting to write his own story. The interesting thing is that everything that the kid wrote came true. At first, the kid thought it was just a coincidence that everything was happening as he wrote it but the more he wrote the more suspicious he got. He told...more

I really liked this one. Can you imagine typing a story and everything coming true? That'd be awesome. Imagine my book coming to life. Oh Jessica where art thou? A well written book. Alex, a girl, was very smart and a good friend, imagine having someone sit there next to you as you type your story...never mind, that can't get annoying. Anywho, the book was good up until (if you've read my other reviews, I think you know what I'm about to say) Yup, the ending. Chapter 33, the final chapter did no...more

I always tend to read goosebumps when I'm in a hurry to finish some books. Goosebumps always entertaines me which is why it is a quick read. This book in particular is about exactly what the title says it is. There is a blob that eats everything! It originates from some majic type writer that someone discovers and begins to write about this blob. Definantely an easy, fun read.

Wew, plis deh... kalau punya mesin tik yang bisa menjadikan cerita yang diketik menjadi kenyataan, aku takkan membuat cerita horor bertema monster pemakan daging. Aku pasti akan membuat cerita berjudul My Chocolate Factory (seperti punya Willy Wonka, yummy...), pokoknya khayalan asyik dari hati yang paling dalam... ^.^

I like that the book is about a magical typing machine that is cursed at the same time. I like that the characters in the book accidentally type a monster story with the typing machine and by doing so make the monsters come to life. This book is suspenseful and full of action, plus it creates a whole new story over a regular typing machine...
Stine never fails to provide us with a story that will always, some how stick with you for the rest of your life. The humor, the twists, everything about these books remind me what it's like to be in fourth grade reading these more then a drug addict takes hits (it's a terrible thing to say but it goes with the books so much.) I mean, the books are SO terrible. They're like a guilty pleasure. A quick read I can get over with and boom, never touch it again for another decade and be happy.

Despite the fact that this book has a blob on the cover, it's mostly about a type writer that grants wishes. Oh, How I wish I had a type writer that granted wishes!
Unless it's like this book. And it also grants evil pink blobs.

I didn't really care for this book. It started off really good then, it kind of took a nose dive from there. The only cool/interesting thing I liked about this book is that everything that the boy typed actually started coming true. I would love to have a typewriter that did that... Imagine all the possibilities that could happen. :)
Although this story idea has been done many times, I enjoyed the subtle differences. As for the ending, it surprised me. I thought I guessed it early on, but I was wrong.

"It was good. Except for the ending. I didn't like the ending very much. If I liked the ending it'd be five stars."

I borrowed this from someone years n years n years ago and I've yet to return it....
i think that these is a good book but it gets kind of born after a while
De chico me encantaban los libros de la serie "Escalofríos".
This book at first confused me but then really caught my attention.
Mom read this to me..It was the very first Goosebumps book we read.
very crazy how the blob takes over the word
this book was it just had some boring parts
does the blob need to appear again?
i WOULD READ IT AGIN.
Goosebumps the blob that ate everyone was interesting.It was amazing because in the book a boy had super powers butt never knew until the end when he wass about to get eaten
This book has a crazy ending.
weirdest ending ever!
Good book!
