The Scarecrow Walks at Midnight (Classic Goosebumps #16, Goosebumps #20) by R. L. Stine-160 pages
I've enjoyed reading Goosebumps books for the monthly challenge, including this one. Jodie and Mark go to their grandparents' rural farm like they have every summer only to find that things are not as they remember. Grandma Miriam no longer makes chocolate chip pancakes like they remember. Instead, it's corn flakes cereal every morning. Stanley (and his son Sticks), the live-in farm hand, has recently gotten into an old book of superstition and has figured out how to make the farm's scarecrows come alive. In exchange for getting his wishes all the time he agreed to put all the scarecrows back to sleep. Did all the scarecrows get put back to sleep, though? Jodie and Mark swear they keep seeing scarecrows walk and they can't help but think about Stanley's warning when they first arrived. He warned them that "The scarecrow walks at midnight." Are there still scarecrows really alive?
