It looks like all the machines aren`t doing what they are supposed to, they`re out of control.Then the tram stops. They stay in there for a while and then they go out, even though they are not allowed to. Then they end on shockstreet. They look at the stores and houses, which all look very old, Marty sees the cemetery and goes in. Erin doesn`t want to go, but she cant stay there alone and goes in. Marty has fallen down in a grave and Erin helps him out. When they are both back on teh ground they see green hands coming from beheath the graves. They are trying to catch the two friends. They can escape, but it`s close! When they`re back on shockstreet there are coming two werewolves. At first Erin and Marty think they are actors, but then they notice they are not. They are running away and the wolves follow them. They climb on a wall, they are safe! But not for long, the wolves are climbing the wall too, but there comes the tram. Erin and Marty jump in it, but.. it is full of skeletons. They are very frightened. Then somebody shouts CUT! And the producer comes. Marty and Erin don`t understand, but then they get turned off. They`re just robots, robots which mr Wright made. And they are out of control. They were made to test the tour.
Opinion:
I think it is a great book! I have read more books of RL Stine and I really think this is a great book.You really think that Erin and Marty are real children and it looks like you are in the story yourself. It is easy to understand that they are scared, so would you be in a situation like that!!! If i would have to give the book a mark between 1 and 10 I would give the book a 8.5!

R.L. Stine, volledige naam Robert Lawrence Stine is een Amerikaanse schrijver van griezelkinderboeken.Als kleine jongetjes vertelden R.L. Stine en zijn broer elkaar iedere avond griezelverhalen .Ze sliepen samen op een kamer en probeerden om de beurt de ander bang te maken, wat maar al te makkelijk lukte. Hun kamer was op zolder, de vloer kraakte en de wind floot vlak langs hun hoofd. De schaduwen van de bomen vormden griezelige figuren op de wanden en het plafond.
