You still lived in anticipation of Halloween, but you no longer cared much for its typical offerings. The costumes weren't real. The candy was too sweet.What you wanted was adventure, panic, black magic. You wanted to find yourself on a dark hilltop, shaking with fear as impossible shadows crept up the slope toward you. You wanted to see the dead sit up in their graves. You wanted to stumble through the fog trying to escape the clutches of a madman. You wanted to survive a nightmare...Death by Halloween is a 'choose-your-own-adventure' style interactive book for adults and mature teens. It features: Masterfully executed hyperlink navigation Over 100 choices Over 50 endings A gender-neutral protagonist Ghosts Ghouls Murderers Self-loathing Cannibals Demons Mutilation Scarecrows Specters Zombies Pie And much more!

I was so excited to find a Halloween-themed book that followed a “Choose Your Own Adventure” format. The issue was that this book lacks any true sense of fun or adventure compared to the beloved series from my youth. It sort of feels like this book is a Choose Your Own Adventure title that‘s had a difficult life and has grown up to be a sad and bitter shell of his former self. He peaked in high school. I gave up about 1/3 of the way in.

Angitron Ahhh that‘s a bummer! CYOA books were the best!! 4y
