Trivia
- While the previous edition's cover featured the first art of Curly the Skeleton, this cover marks the debut of his finalized design as depicted by Tim Jacobus.
- Several stories in both the previous book and following book were adapted into episodes of the television series Goosebumps, but no stories from this book were.
- However, "The Spirit of the Harvest Moon" received an audio adaptation in 1995 — with an introduction from R.L. Stine. Posts online suggest that the audio adaptation of this story was distributed on cassette tapes via the Goosebumps Fan Club.[1] These tapes have evidently fallen into obscurity, as there are seemingly no images of them available online.
