A prank call lands teens in hot water when they dial a number on
Fear Street in this deliciously creepy young adult thriller from
Goosebumps author R.L. Stine.It begins as an innocent prank: Deena
Martinson and her best friend, Jade Smith, make sexy phone calls to
the boys from school. But Deena's half-brother, Chuck, catches them
in the act and threatens to tell their parents--unless the girls
let him in on the fun. Chuck begins making random calls,
threatening anyone who answers. It's dangerous and exciting, the
thrill heightened by the publicity and the uproar the calls cause.
Until Chuck calls a number on Fear Street.
Alexis is the last girl you'd expect to sell her soul. She already
has everything she needs--an adorable boyfriend, the perfect best
friend, and a little sister who's finally recovering after being
possessed by an evil spirit, then institutionalized.
Alexis is thrilled when her sister joins a club; new friends are
just what Kasey needs. It's strange, though, to see how fast the
girls in The Sunshine Club go from dorky and antisocial to gorgeous
and popular. Soon Alexis learns that the girls have pledged an oath
to a seemingly benevolent spirit named Aralt. Worried that Kasey's
in over her head again, Alexis and her best friend Megan decide to
investigate by joining the club themselves. At first, their
connection with Aralt seems harmless. Alexis trades in her pink
hair and punky clothes for a mainstream look, and quickly finds
herself reveling in her newfound elegance and success.
Instead of fighting off the supernatural, Alexis can hardly
remember why she joined in the first place. Surely it wasn't to
destroy Aralt...why would she hurt someone who has given her so
much, and asked for so little in return?
