This collectors edition has three stories in it. I had already read 'bad moonlight' so I skipped that one but read haunted and trapped. Trapped was by far my favourite and was a refreshing change than the usual trope that we love fear street for! Elaine was tough.
Haunted was interesting - and I wonder if Buddy I'd the same one from beach house?

Ghosts and werewolves... and more ghosts!!
Haunted:
Melissa is being haunted by ghost who claims she killed him. But surely this is something she would remember, right? First the Fear Street Prowler breaking into houses on Fear Street to steal stuff, and now this? Poor Melissa.
I really loved the premise of this book! I was just as confused as Melissa throughout the whole thing! I could not figure out why Paul, the ghost, was claiming the Melissa killed him when she did not remember. Amnesia, maybe? Nope! 😉
Overall, I really loved this one! First of all I loved that there was an actual ghost on Fear Street! Second, the mystery surrounding Paul’s death and why he was haunting Melissa... so much YES! The plot twist was insane and I loved it! This is why I love this series!

Bad Moonlight:
Danielle is in a band, touring and singing with them, but she keeps having these awful “fantasies” of horrible deaths and stuff. She says fantasies, I say hallucinations. Lol. But at least she admits she needs help with her mental health issues. There were no stereotypes in this book about that and I really loved it. Needing help is not something you should be ashamed of. Anyway, Danielle just graduated from high school and her aunt, who she lives with now after her parents died in a car accident, actually encouraged her to get into this band stuff before she went off to college. You know, just a year off of fun before you settle down and focus on your studies. It’s usually the opposite of what parents want their kids to do, but I thought it was pretty cool.
So, this Fear Street book had werewolves in it and it was pretty cool! I really liked this iteration of them and how they shift from human to wolf. It was very unique and I liked it. And overall, I liked it well enough. I’m not usually the biggest fan of werewolves, but I liked this iteration of them. It was unique and interesting and I really enjoyed it. The characters were okay, but what really got me were those insane plot twists!

Trapped:
Elaine thinks she’s going to spend a boring day in detention, but she would be wrong. The idiot kids in detention decide to ditch the room and go have fun in the deserted school, like raiding the cafeteria! But then Elaine accidentally finds the entrance to the infamous tunnels under the school and the idiot kids decide to go explore them. *sigh*
I remember reading this book back when I was in middle school and really loving it! But I didn’t actually remember any specific details about, which was nice because I love being surprised. The one thing I definitely did remember was the creepy atmosphere of being trapped down in some spooky tunnels. And you know what, it was still creepy the second time around!
And I have to talk about the kills, because you bet people are going to die! So, the kids run into... something that starts picking them off one by one (is it the same thing that go the kids back in the 60s??) So not only are they lost, but now they’re being killed off by some red mist, which is more horrifying than it sounds! And let me tell you, the description of the deaths were amazing! They were gory and tense and just—yes! This is what I live for—R.L. Stine’s descriptive death scenes. Lol.
I really enjoyed this Fear Street book! I loved the creepy, claustrophobic atmosphere, the suspense, the descriptive scenes, and the setting in the school and the tunnels! It was just an overall enjoyable read!
