I kinda wish Stine would try out another semi ambitious thing like this again, the recent books are kind o0f back into a rut for the same reasons as before, with some neat gimmicks sometimes.

I actually quite liked The Menace, if only due to how psychopathic he is, with him willingly to let kids die for the sake of his parents. That really upped the stakes from usual.

Arc 2 lessens the kids, even if it feels like it didn't really need to be an arc with how somewhat standalone the final book compared to this one.

Looking forward to more Series 2000 and Season 3/4 one.
