A Midsummer Night's Scream

De: R. L. Stine

Narrado por: Brittany Pressley

In R.L. Stine's A Midsummer Night's Scream, the Master of Horror takes on the Master of Theatre!

Oh, what fools these actors be!

It was a horror movie that turned into real horror—three young actors lost their lives while the camera rolled. Production stopped, and people claimed that the movie was cursed.

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 to notice that she's practically been throwing herself at him. What does he know? And anyway, this is her big chance to be a star!

When shooting starts, though, the set is plagued by a series of horrible accidents—could history be repeating itself?

“Narrator Brittany Pressley delivers a solid performance that…manages to draw in listeners via her age-appropriate tone and likeable energy. Pressley's youthful voice is mixed with just enough life experience to give her the perfect amount of teen angst and youthful optimism – and this renders the story all the more immediate and realistic.” —Publishers Weekly

“Stine is the master of the macabre for the elementary set.” —Library Journal

Is it worth 1 credit?

What made the experience of listening to A Midsummer Night's Scream the most enjoyable?

I very much enjoyed A Midsummer Night's Scream. The downside is that it is such a short "read."

Who was your favorite character and why?

It's hard to pick one favorite character. All of them were great.

I haven't listened to any other Brittany Pressley's other performances.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Not really.

Any additional comments?

I did like the story, just with it being so short as compared to many other stories I have listened to, it seemed to me like a waste of a credit. Again, a good "read" though.

I scream for your soul

What I love about this book is that R.L.Stine does his best. It's pretty much in the style of his previous books he has wrote before. I like the storyline but it could of been better I think. Also I'm not really happy with the narration and they could of picked a better person cause her voice is very annoying to me. Parts of the books could of been better and it also seems like it's been done before by other people.

Overall, you will like this book if like Stine's other books, or you like books that are in the teen genre.

could have been more scary

wasn't that creepy 😣 thought because it was an RL Stine it would have been more frightening

The suspense was REAL!!

it was amazing!!! Ugh Adelie!! Darn it R.L. Stein you had me gasping you always got me clutching the couch just like in 1998!! They should of found a new set after the first time went a wall!

It kinda stunk

The ending it wasn’t what I’m used to I mean it was very quick I didn’t enjoy 🤢

Classic

Like the Goosebumps books but a tiny bit more grown up! you'll enjoy these books if that's your thing and it certainly was when I was a kid. I always wondered what R.L. Stine's more mature writing would be like and I was both pleasantly surprised and not surprised at all!
