R.L. Stine has had a long successful career writing stories filled
with fright, terrors and things that go bump in the night. With his
newest book, he is promising that the novel won't only give you
goosebumps, it'll be his most gruesome yet.
The author
took to Twitter Tuesday afternoon to announce his newest installment in
the “Fear Street” revival, “The Lost Girl.” he novel is set to be released September 29, 2015.
The Lost Girl follows the story of new student Lizzy Palmer is the talk of Shadyside High. Michael and his
girlfriend Pepper befriend her, but the closer they get to her, the
stranger she seems… and the more attractive she is to Michael. He
invites her to join him on a snowmobile race that ends in a tragic
accident. Soon, Michael's friends start being murdered, and Pepper
becomes convinced that Lizzy is behind the killings. But to her total
shock, she and Michael are drawn into a tragic story of an unthinkable
betrayal committed over 60 years ago.
"Fear Street" was a horror fiction
series by the author, which he wrote from 1989-2005, and has sold over
80 million copies. He revived the series in 2014 with the release of
“Party Games.” The second book of the revived series, “Don’t Stay Up
Late,” came out in April.
Stine told CNN
in September 2014, the new "Fear Street" books would reflect how young
adult fiction has changed since the 90’s and they would be longer, more
adult and more violent. “"For me, it's thinking of new scares, plot
twists and cliffhanger chapter endings I haven't done before, moving
into the modern world," Stine dished. “It will be a roller coaster ride
of fearful surprises."
