Stine has once again provided young readers with an amazingly suspenseful and thriller. As part of a series, this book follows the pattern of the other Goosebumps books. The front cover reels the reader in and the the text that follows keeps the reader hooked. The chapters are short, typically about 3 or 4 pages. The descriptive words used in the book creates the setting in the readers mind and creates a reality in the reader's mind. The author develops the plot quickly and the ch...more

Fleeing from a dark-robed guard, Sue and Eddie rush to their hotel. Strangely, they can't remember their own last name, and their parents have vanished. Returning to Terror Tower, they find themselves i...more

Soy fan desde niña de esta serie de libros y de su serie Tv jajaja claramente ya no me producen el mismo sentimiento de terror como en aquellos tiempos ... pero me traen buenos recuerdos :)
Al estar dirigida a un publico infantil el vocabulario es simple, mostrando una letra grande y clara y un lenguaje poco sofisticado con el objetivo de llamar la atención del lector joven. Los capítulos son breves (bueno en si el libro es muy ligero, pero piensa que el libro va dirigido a niños de 7 - 16 años m...more

This is, what, book 27 that I review from Goosebumps? And I have yet another bad review.
What I really dislike about this book is the transition from reality to fantasy or "flashback" It was terribly one. It all happened in a blink of an eye....speaking of eyes who's idea was it to have these Saw Movie like contraptions in a children's book? It's one thing to have torture chambers in a book, but is it necessary to explain what they do?

This book i about two kids and their grandpa and they just won a trip to the tower which is themed like the middle ages so whoever goes in there knows what the middle ages feel. But the problem is when they enter the tower their whole life gets turned upside down because their whole life style ends up in the middle ages and its becomes a very scary thing for them but they escape the middle ages life once they helped each other and pulled through. I really liked this book.
Ahhh, the Goosebump days. I would borrow so many of these from the library they seriously considered extending my limit of books checked out at one time. R.L. Stine you were a reprieve from a harsh and dreary childhood in which my mind wandered far away from the troubles of the day. I stole books into my bed and read far into the night by the faintest of lights. I might have better eyesight were it not for you; however, I regret not one page or line.
I decided to read this book because it looked exciting.It wasn't that exciting but i still wanted to know what was going to happen next.I didn't like that it was boring at the beginning and wasn't that interesting but it kinda got better near the end and was overall a good book.I would recommend this book to 10-15 year olds because it wasn't that scary and is suitable for that age.Category on the bingo board:A book written by a male.
I was hooked on these series as a kid. I remember when this first book came out and all the hype surrounding it, and quickly joined in on scarfing these things down. They were fun at the time, although even in grade school they had me rolling my eyes at some of the goofiness (and the cliffhanger chapter endings! Every chapter, without fail!).
Actual rating: 3.5 stars. I would have given it 4 stars, but I thought it was stupid that (view spoiler) Other than that, I really enjoyed it. It's one of the few Goosebumps books I think could have been a full length novel.

Another book by RL Stine. If you love scary books, you will love this one just as much as I did. Two kids figure that they are from medieval times and are trapped in a tower waiting to be beheaded. I loved this book because I love scary books. Find out if the kids make it out of the tower alive.

This book is about two kids who are on a tour of London Tower with their family and get lost inside on their own. They are terrorized by the tower and a creepy figure that keeps following them. This book is extremely suspenseful and yet another great R.L. Stine book.
I think this book is about when a family moved to this castle like house and they felt strange vibs around them even a young child because he didn't want to go in and he is terrified to go in. So the horror begins at that point. (That is all I remember in this book)
Once you've read one, you've read them all. The plot structure was the same. But that didn't stop me from reading almost all of them when I was in middle school.
This book was my favorite followed by the "Ghost Next Door".

well this is one of my favorite books of R.L> stine. this one takes kids back in time to the midevil peirod. this book is verry suspensefeul and is very inter taining. i can always picture myself in the persons shoes
I loved this book, I read it a while ago and I sometimes read it now. It's really scary and quite complicated in a good way. There is a twist which I really loved and I would reccomend people to read this book.:')
Only read this because I am preparing for a family night. I see why these were popular with the kids though- Quick, scary stories. Light on plot, heavy on horror...next I am reading Return of the Mummy!
This book was pretty good, it isn't as scary as the other goosebumps books but it still has a good storyline and good plot. There are a few nervous parts in the books. This one of the ok goosebumps books.
I can distinctly remember where I read this.I was in the back of Mrs. Chapman's class in fourth grade on a bean bag chair, and all the lights were turned off. Ahhh memories.....
I googled it, there is a Terror Tower in the UK! https://plus.google.com/109768059961907219407/about
This is my favorite of the series. It is my favorite because it was very mysterious. I was like whats going to happen next the whole time I was reading.
I mistook this for something else recently. For what, I have no idea, but this was one of my favourites when I was a kid from the episodes.
There was a boy and girl they went to london for a trip.When they went to a terror tower and peple got lost. A strange man chased after the boy girl.
Ahh, it was OK. I read better with hardcover, but this one was without one, so.....I lost interest. Whatever, I didn't like it much.
Loved this one as a kid. I also liked the short made-for-tv movie based on this story; loved watching it back then with my brother ;D
Goosebumps was so popular when I was a kid, we would get in fights in the library over who got to check the new one out next. No joke.
I like this book because it is scary. The part I like the most is when the exacuniter trys to catch th 2 children in the old times.
This was literally one of the scariest books i have ever read
but still, amazing :)
One of my favorite books :D
but still, amazing :)
One of my favorite books :D
Yeah, this was ok, but not really scary like most his books are. Quite scary, though, I'll grant you that.
One of my favorite Goosebump books...... This story caught me offgaurd with all of the stuff going on
