A Midsummer Night’s Scream Review

Happy Friday Everyone!

We have made it to Friday, which means tomorrow is officially the weekend!!!! I know I will be reading and sleeping this weekend. Today I decided to do my review on a spooky book. A Midsummer Night’s Scream by R.L. Stine, takes the Shakespeare’s story and puts a spooky twist on it.

The description was taken from the Goodreads website:

“Oh, what fools these actors be!

it was a horror movie that turned into real horror: Three young actors lost their lives while the cameras rolled. Production stopped, and people proclaimed the movie was cursed.

Now, sixty years later, new actors are venturing onto the haunted set. In a desperate attempt to revive their failing studio, Claire’s dad has green-lit a remake of Mayhem Manor, and Claire and her friends are dying to be involved.

At first, Claire laughs at Jake’s talk of ghosts and curses. He’s been too busy crushing on her best friend, Delia, or making out with that slut, Annalee, to notice that she’s practically been throwing herself at him. What does he know anyway? This is her big chance to be a star!

But then, Claire runs into a creepy little man named Benny Puckerman, and gets her hands on a real love potion! Unfortunately, the course of true love never did run smooth…

Get ready for laughter to turn into screams as the Grandmaster of Horror, R.L. Stine, takes on the Master of Theater in this modern reimagining of Shakespeare’s classic romantic comedy, A Midsummer Night’s Dream.”

This book takes the classic tale you think you know, and turns it into something for a new generation. R.L. Stine’s rendition of A Midsummer Night’s Dream will take you on a thrilling, scary, and hilarious journey. If he were still alive today, I bet even Shakespeare would love this version of his play.

Go on a creepy journey full of mystery my friends!
