Inspired by the idea behind an everything bagel, R.L. Stine’s latest contains all kinds of scares

“What if I wrote an Everything Book?” Stine writes in the book's introduction. “What if I wrote one of my scary novels and put in all the different kinds of scares my readers tell me they like? Not just two kids trapped in a haunted house. Or a family battling an evil monster. Or an after-school vampire attack. Or a doll coming to life. What if I mixed into a book all kinds of horrors at once? What if I concocted a story with new versions of the horrors I’ve created before? An Everything Scary Story.”
