This is the third book of Stinetinglers, a collection of books of short stories by R.L. Stine. Each story begins with an introduction of R.L. Stine himself, explaining how he was inspired to write each story and how he developed the ideas. This book in particular is composed of ten short stories: Full-Moon Sleepover Party, The Bad-Luck King, The Stray Dog, Fish Food, The Treehouse, The Magic Is in the Hat, Oops!, I'm Not Becka, The Dream Factory and Eddie the Flash. All the stories are very well written and have unexpected twists at the end. I have been a fan of R.L. Stine's work for many years, but I mostly have read his books in Spanish, I started reading them in English more recently. Besides, I think Stinetinglers is the first collection of short stories that R.L. Stine writes in many years, and I think he is very good at it, in fact I think that some of these short stories are more enjoyable that some of his books, and he has written more than 300. My personal favorite stories of this book are The Treehouse, The Dream Factory and Eddie the Flash, because those have the best endings for me. I don't know what else I can say about this book, because since it is a collection of short stories, I cannot talk in depth about each one of them, but I highly recommend this to anyone who likes horror stories or other R.L. Stine's series, such as Goosebumps or Fear Street.
