It‘s 2 weeks before (another) #SweetValleyHalloween when Jessica finds the perfect witchy dress & decides the Unicorns will host a “Monster Ball” with an SVH band. Liz makes friends with Kala, a Native American girl in town for the month. Fowler Enterprises has two potential sites for their spooky party— a ramshackle cabin on Sleepy Hollow that they fix up. But when they find artifacts & remains (plus a seance later), Kala helps save the property!

JenlovesJT47 What did you think of this one? I always had a vivid memory of the part where the boys are hiding in trash bags and everyone freaks out thinking they‘re in the garbage truck 😅 6d
TorieStorieS @JenlovesJT47 That part was so fun!! I enjoyed it— and was surprised that they used an ouija board and had a seance! Music literally bringing the shack down was great, too! And I always love when Fowler/Patman money is used for a good cause! In the Kids books, I think they both wind up sponsoring parks! 6d

It‘s the sixth #SweetValleyHalloween and this time, the Wakefield twins host their entire second-grade class for a spooky party. When Winston dares to steal the spotlight from Jessica by telling a werewolf story, Jessica makes up a Wakefield gold-mining ghost story. She also starts a bit of a prank war to prove that girls aren‘t fraidy cats. More fake bugs are put to good use! The twins dress as spooky skeletons!

It‘s the 5th #SweetValleyHalloween & the elementary school is having a costume contest and parade for the grand re-opening of the Stardust Theatre. The Magnificent Magico, a puppeteer, is in town along with his daughter, Sam. She wants to be more involved in her dad‘s life, but he seems to want to leave her behind with Mrs. Creely, Lila‘s neighbor! Fun costumes in this one like the twins‘ two-headed sea monster, Lila as Dorothy, & Winston a joker!

The third #SweetValleyHalloween has Elizabeth dressed as Sherlock Holmes, Jessica a cheerleader & Caroline Pearce a witch. In the days leading up to Halloween, everyone starts to think the nosy redhead may be a real witch— she‘s predicting the future & they spy on her using a broom with a cauldron bubbling on the stove! When they dump water on Caroline, they expect her to melt away! Caroline doesn‘t, but she does win the costume contest!
