goosebumps

I love the film of the Omen' date=' so at some point I [b']must read the book. I always end up preferring it

I'm just a bookworm.

The book's even scarier than the film... not too many books can do that. "The Shining" is a much better film than book, as is "Carrie". Maybe it's just Stephne King though!

the invitation

beach party

the forbidden game series

the mall

Carrie's a great book, as is the Green Mile.

Oh and Jaws the book is also far better than the film.

i read christopher pike scary books when i was little. only ever read my little sister's goosebumps books when i was on holiday and had run out of things to read so the choice was either that or my great grandma's reader's digests.

Did no-one read Shivers? by M.D. Spencer? Lol, goosebumps were fun to read but Shivers was my fave...The terrible terror book (i think it was called) was my fave lol and One Foot In the Grave - oh those evil gypsy women

You have to be kidding! The book rawks ass over the film. The hedge animals, the party guests, the elevator... hell, the incident with the fire hose (read the book) had me fucking gripped, more than any annoying child wandering around waggling his finger.

"Lets get Invisible" was aceness

I've yet to read the Shining, been meaning to for ages - I liked the film, but I reckon as with most Stephen King stories the book would prolly be alot better.

Anyone who's seen the Green Mile but hasn't read the book has only just scratched the surface of it. It's incredibly well written and really moving.

The one about the dolls in the attic terrifies me to this day. I read it once, and I was never brave enough to read it again.
