Description

A group of teens, stranded while returning from their ski weekend, take refuge in a desolate farmhouse that could mean kill or be killed.

Quick Summary

R.L. Stine fans, this one hits different. "Ski Weekend" takes the classic horror setup teens stranded in the middle of nowhere and drops them into a creepy farmhouse where nothing is quite what it seems. It's got that perfect mix of genuine suspense and Stine's trademark humor that makes you laugh even while you're on edge, which is exactly what makes his books so hard to put down. Upper middle schoolers and high schoolers who love a good scary story but don't want anything too graphic will find this hits the sweet spot. Parents should know it's spooky-suspenseful rather than truly gory, with some tense moments that build nicely. If you've devoured the Goosebumps series and are ready for something with slightly older characters and higher stakes, this is a great next step think of it as Goosebumps meets survival horror with a dash of thriller.
