Frankenturkey 2 Review: He’s back…

With Thanksgiving just gone, and in the spirit of fairness, I thought it would be a good idea to review Frankenturkey 2.

This was the 4th book in the Bone Chillers series, which was one of the many YA horror series that jumped on the Goosebumps bandwagon. Not long ago I reviewed R. L. Stine’s Attack of the Jack-O’-Lanterns, another holiday horror aimed at a YA audience released in 1996, which got me curious in this book.
Are Goosebumps Books Scary?
Only one book has ever brought me close to being scared, and it was not even what most would describe as a fully-fledged horror novel! You can see what I mean in my review of MINE by Robert McCammon.

Attack of the Jack-O’-Lanterns: Both Trick and Treat
Attack of the Jack-O’-Lanterns (1996) is book 48 in the original Goosebumps series. This holiday horror may prove to be the perfect festive read for you.
