Why does the cover have a picture of a giant turtle 🐢?

Why does the cover have a picture of a giant turtle 🐢? I liked the story it gave me spooked 👻 chills! Ooooohhhhh. And the part when the skeleton 💀 ☠️ hands ✋️ grabbed the ship 🚢 I scooted from where I thought the hands would be even though I was in the bed! But the cover doesn't make sense! Goodbye...your friend Chloë 🧡

Keep Them Coming

I recently started this series, the first book being "Revenge of the Living Dummy", and I got to say, it's pretty cool. There's a very neat double story arc where you have a new story with the characters then an interesting invitation to Horrorland bringing the second story arc into play. The way it was written has that similar Goosebumps feel along with an intriguing cross book story.

Great Fun!

***About This Story***
In the second of the Horrorland series, Creep from the Deep, Billy and his sister Sheena are visiting their uncle, Dr. Deep, a marine biologist with a mini-submarine and (unrealistically) no staff to speak of. The uncle is looking for a sunken pirate ship and has invited his nephew and niece along for the summer. They end up on a deserted island running from zombie pirates, who have what is probably my favorite chant from any of the books: "You ended our death. You ended our sleep. The men come alive in the briny deep. So come with us, come with the men. And meet your fate with Captain Ben."

This story was less "scary" than Revenge of the Living Dummy, but it also had a more exotic and refreshing backdrop with the ocean/desert island set-up. The characters from this story were present in the old Goosebumps books Deep Trouble I & II, but in reality Creep from the Deep is a complete revision of the siblings' story. It's well done--neither my husband, stepdaughter, nor I thought there was any missing background information or disjointed narrative. There is also more of a focus on family working together against the enemy and less petty in-fighting than in the previous novel, which we appreciated.

***Kid's Reaction***
My stepdaughter loved the chant by the zombie pirates, too, and has since made up her own chant for when we go swimming. I don't think this story is her favorite--she tends to prefer the book narrated by girls--but I do think it's her favorite male-narrated story so far (we're on book 9). She gives it 4.5/5.

Great

Cover Doesn't Match Story

I have but one negative thought about this audio book/book & it's in the review title.

I love how theres 2 story's in 1.

I enjoyed the pirate story. But I'm really loving the horrland adventures. 2025, I'm 38 and loving these books.

Why this book jumping to another chapter?!?

I tried clicking chapter 7 and it says it was already on chapter 12?!? Is this some kind of joke?!!
