Fear Hall Part 1

Fear Hall: The Beginning was great. Hope Mathis and her friends stay near Fear Hall. Fear Hall is a dormitory that is miles away from Shadyside. Lately, there have been mysterious murders happening near Fear Hall. This book was wonderful but the murders were gross. Using a baseball bat to rip out someone's ear is way too gross. In this book, you think you know thw killer but the ending will reveal who the killer really is.

!!!!!

i have read (...) stines's books, and by far this book is the best, without a shadow of a doubt! i can't really tell you too much about it or it would kill the point in reading it, but you have to get ths book!

TOTAL MUST READ!!!

I love the way that u get into the story, the different backgrounds, the sorority sisters.. when u read it, it's as if ur on campus, chasing them around, and until u read the end, u can't figure out what's wrong with the 3 m's! are they just really mean, trying to ruin hope and her roomates fun? read to find out!

It is a scary but great book!

The book Fear Hall written by R.L. Stine is a great book. Fear Hall is well written because it is an easy book to read and understand. R.L. Stine also writes other great books, but I think this one is the best. I think that Hope was one my favorite characters. She always kept her boyfriend from getting into trouble. Sometimes I disagree with what she does because I think that Daryl (Hope's boyfriend) should leave college. Why? Daryl killed three people already because he mistakened Hope for someone else who was out with another guy. I do want to tell you more about the story, but I think you should read the book and find out what happens to the people staying at Fear Hall.

Loved it!

I loved this book, I didn't realize that she was one of those kind of people. And those stories of what her mom did, just because she was fat? ! I really really liked this book and I can't wait to read the conclution!
