Where do we live? Fear Street! When do we live there? Now, and for the rest of eternity, perpetually trapped between the world of living teenagers and the damned! Earlier today R.L.

As Jezebel points out, in under-140 characters Stine has managed to summarize almost every Fear Street book for first-time readers. (I suggest following the author on Twitter if you want an online equivalent of your crochety weird neighbor: he lists his job as “to terrify kids,” and just look at that unimpressed face in his profile pic. Good times.) Here’s to grown readers and a whole new generation of young adults developing a healthy fear of prom, parties, lifeguards…really just socializing in general. Shadyside forever!
