GOOSEBUMPS PART 2: THE HAUNTED MASK 2!!!!!!! two....


Yeah the Haunted Mask 2..... probably not since.....Metallica's "The Unforgiven 2" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w1mgEQTMVB8) has there been a more asked for sequel. I had sooooo many questions after not reading The Haunted Mask 1 that I felt there had to be a sequel. So this one is about this vindictive asshole (named Steve) that basically and I quote "Wants to scare those first graders....TO DEATH!" and why? Because the first graders play pranks on him. Probably the most improbable one being that they....
-found wet concrete
-rolled a section of the wet concrete into a ball
-waited for it to dry and then proceeded to carry the ball on concrete to their soccer field
-painted the now dry concrete like a soccer ball
-tricked the main character into kicking said concrete ball
Now I don't now about you but if a bunch of first grader manged to pull that prank on me, I wouldn't even be angry....that's just impressive. I mean when I was in first grade all I did was draw pictures of boats. That prank takes serious commitment. WAY TO GO KIDS!
So his big plan (conceived by his friend Chuck who I think has a crush on the main character) is to find a scary mask and scare the first graders, but not just any scary mask....THE SCARIEST MASK! Wow. Now apparently this girl he knows had a really scary mask last year so tries to ask her about it. The girl warns him that the masks are haunted and that you don't want to wear them. He doesn't listen though...so in my opinion he has whatever happens to him coming. I always listen to what people warn me about no matter how bizzare it sounds. In fact one time my friend Dunbar told me not to go outside or the ghost or Steven Seagal would innapropiately touch me. Now that sounds incredibly improbable but I listened to him anyway because.....what if he was right? Nobody wants to be innapropiately touched by the ghost of Steven Seagal. NOBODY! Now not only does this kid not listen to that girl but also ignores this crazy magician guy with "vampire eyes!" that tells him not to put on the mask. AND THEN when he has the mask hidden under his shirt THE MASK BITES HIM. Kid still doesn't put two and two together. Congratulations kid you're a fucking idiot. So he puts the mask on and it won't come off and bad shit happens. So now he needs the girl to help him get the mask off. If I was that girl I wouldn't fucking help that guy, that guy's an asshole. But she helps him anyway. Apparently all he needed to do was find some sort of suit that belongs to mask itself and then the mask comes....off.....I wasn't really paying attention at this part, but I have a feeling the ending didn't really make sense anyways. BUT WAIT THERES A TWIST.....Steve's friend Chuck put on another haunted mask. AND THIS ONE WON'T COME OFF! Oh Chuck! You're so retarded! Hillarity ensues...yeah.
BONUS: I just wanted to add that on the back of the cover to this book there's the title to the next goosebumps book called "The Beast from the East". Unfortunately I don't have it but I'm hoping its about Bruce Springsteen...AS A MONSTER! Or Bam Bam Bigelow. You pick.
COMING TUESDAY....PART 3! FOR REALS!
