Pages

Main Game

Chapter 1: The player finds the first page by the fireplace in the study, and the other two pages in the Bedrooms upstairs. In the bedroom on the left of the hallway, a blue Lawn Gnome is stealing a page, so you have to smash him to get it. The last page is in the room on the far right of the hallway, under the bed.

Chapter 2: The 3 pages upstairs are in the same places as in Chapter 1 with the exception of the page in the bedroom on the left, which is now in the storage room. Downstairs, the first page is one the table in the living room. The second page is under the dining table in the dining room. The last page is on the top shelf cabinets near the stove in the Kitchen.

Chapter 4: The pages from Chapter 3 are in the same places, with the addition of the 8th page in the basement, being carried by a blue Lawn Gnome.

Easter Eggs

  • Whenever a new monster is introduced, their burnt books are usually in a room. By holding on it, Stine will announce the title, and usually give a hint on how to avoid the monster.
  • Various artwork from the original Goosebumps books are depicted on picture frames throughout the house.
  • When the player enters the basement in Chapter 4, the player can find the Cuckoo Clock of Doom. By tapping it, it will respawn all of the lawn gnomes that were in the basement.
  • If the green circle that helps you move from place to place appears to be yellow that could mean there is something/someone in the room the player is about to enter do for a safer game play wait and do not wait by the door because then it will exit the room while the player is there so the players best bet is to go and hide.

Ending

In Chapter 4, Twist finds the Clock from The Cuckoo Clock of Doom in the basement, which apparently Slappy has been using to repeat the day over and over so he could avoid being trapped in the book, which is why he won't stay in the book every time you trap him. After you complete Chapter 4, Slappy starts to mock Twist and Stine, when suddenly he starts to transform into a Coffin, and then into a log. Stine reveals that Slappy, having not read the book, didn't know that the clock also makes you age backwards, meaning that Slappy is stopped forever. Stine then immortalizes the story in his new book, titled "The Night of Scares".

Bonus Challenge

This chapter is unlocked after completing Chapter 4 of the main game. The player needs to go around the study looking for 7 pages, while avoiding Slappy and the red Lawn Gnomes. Slappy is very slow moving and usually takes him a while to find the player. After the player breaks the red lawn gnomes, they don't respawn, so the player will want to destroy them as soon as possible. The pages are scattered throughout the study. Some are very obvious to find like the page behind the boxes and on top of the fireplace, but the other 5 pages are behind books on the different bookshelves. When the player collects the last page, the player needs to make sure at least one light is on, otherwise Slappy will run at the player and kill the player. Also make sure no yellow Lawn Gnomes are near the light the player turned on, otherwise they will turn off the light.
