First Evil (Fear Street Cheerleaders)

This is my ABSOLUTE favorite R. L. Stine book! It has stuck with me through the years and I was pleased to be able to purchase a copy again!

This book was really interesting I remember why I love Fear Street books when I was younger they are still so good. The characters were interesting especially Corky and Bobbi one got effected by the curse while the other was trying to find out why <spoiler>Bobbi died</spoiler> it is left open ended so I will find out more when I continue the series. I really loved the plot it was a great horror and mystery book I liked how everything played out.

Posted originally on my blog: [...]When it comes to the Fear Street novels, I have to say I was quite fond of the Cheerleader ones. I think the primary reason for this fascination comes from this being guaranteed to be caused by something mystical and evil. Unlike a lot of the books where other teens were responsible because they were bat s**8 crazy, the cheerleaders of Shadyside were tormented by the evil spirit that killed "Sarah Fear" in the early 1900's. There's a reason behind my quotation marks around Sarah's name, but just in case you aren't familiar with that particular tale, I don't want to spoil it.Corky and Bobbi find themselves struggling to fit in with the kids of Shadyside High. Though they are renowned cheerleaders, the other cheerleaders are less than excited about accepting the new girls. A lot of it is because the girls are resentful. Of course, this creates the perfect environment for the evil to take over one of the girl's body and create havoc.I felt it was fairly obvious which girl was infected, but only because I knew about the evil spirit and it's backstory. I don't believe it would have been quite as obvious if I didn't know so much about the plot to begin with. As for the characters, I didn't actually mind the drama between the girls. After all, I felt it was appropriately done and it helped move the story line along. Especially in terms of providing misleading clues and hints as to who might be responsible for all of the terrible accidents that are occurring.

I have been a RL Stine fan since I was a kid. I really enjoy going back now as an adult and reading them all over again. They are quick reads now but still very entertaining. Recommended for those of all ages.

I super enjoyed this spookable book. I am never going to be without a clean scary book to read. I recommend it to anyone who enjoys this type of stories.

I loved reading this series in middle school. I'm glad I decided to reread it because I remember now why it is my favorite and I see there has been more books added to the series

Always a big fan of this book. The first 3 books are so good. Need to read the lat 2

It is not the actual book. It is copied and put in book form. I read the description but could not find any thing on it. My daughter was ok about it but I thought I bought an actual book

My grandson enjoyed the book very much.

Delivered to my kindle very quickly. The book was enjoyed

Total tolle Geschichte. Die Reihe um Corky und Co. gab es sogar mal auf deutsch. Ist im Cora Verlag erschienen. Ich verstehe also leider nicht, warum es jetzt keine deutsche Fassung mehr gibt. Sehr schade, aber auch auf englisch gut lesbar

I read this book back 1999 and it was amazing!!!I read it again in the year 2023 and its still amazing!!!

I really love horror that builds up suspicion but doesn’t take away from the story. The creeping timeline of events until the climatic uncanny evil is truly reviled. Death scenes were so beautifully described!
