This is the first goosebumps graphic novel. It’s an original tale and not a graphic novel of an already existing tale. This is also not written by RL Stine. However, it was still a fantastic read. I find the scary aspects are not there, but the essence of horror is. This book is about creatures that go bump on a Moonlit night. This book is about werewolves and the swamp that protects them. One of the things I love about goosebumps is that they just don’t put forward a scary story, but they put forward a story with heart. The heart is very much seen in this book about the protection of family. This is a new great way to get kids interested in a series that’s 20 years old.
