Dear R.L. Stine:
I spent many a day when I was a child of seven or eight reading books from your Goosebumps series. They sparked my interest with their intense spookiness. They evoked a love of reading which still follows me today, though I have yet to find a series as compelling as this particular one. The one book that especially stood out to me as inspirational was “Beware of the Purple Peanut Butter” from the Reader Beware, You Choose the Scare installment. This is going to be great. |

Just like the time where you lived in Vietnam! |
So many children’s book series of that time period were about pointless things that did not interest me in the least. I could care less about kids who lived in a boxcar, Mary Kate and Ashley’s latest adventure, or girls who babysat for fun. I could not relate to any of these kids. What really made me happy was watching Are You Afraid of the Dark, telling ghost stories with my friends and just being scared. This book definitely provided those elements of scariness for me. “Beware of the Purple Peanut Butter” stimulated just the right amount of fear without polluting my young brain with psychotic images. The “dusty fridge in my aunt’s basement” was right on my level. A refrigerator is such a simple appliance and is not ordinarily “scary.” However, in this book, the little details made the difference between ho-hum and eerie. Most kids don’t say ‘refrigerator’. Instead, many shorten it to ‘fridge.’ By doing so in the novel, it makes the imagery more familiar and relating something back to one’s own life stirs up dread and panic. My aunt really did have a dusty fridge in her basement. The basement itself was always off-limits, just like the fridge. This gave a sense of personal fear because it pertained so closely to my life. I had always been curious about that basement, and now, through the medium of Goosebumps, I could finally see what was down there.
“Beware of the Purple Peanut Butter” was always so unpredictable because there were 20 possible endings. It always boggled my mind how only about 120 pages could contain so many endings. It really was amazing. The great thing about these books was that you never knew which was the “right” path. One that seems like the logical choice to stay safe, may have you ending up dead. The one that seems wrong could save you from doom. It was also a kick to pick the worst possible ending, just to see what could happen. As a kid, I always had a curiosity for that. |
I had that purple peanut butter book. I always ended up dying the same way though... :upset:
