Personally I didn't love it nor hate it. I felt it was just okay. I prefer R.L. Stein's novels more but I think this would be a great graphic novel for middle-grade audiences!
Thank you to Netgalley for providing me with an arc in exchange for review

Graphic novels usually are not my thing, but I like to step out of my comfort zone occasionally. Plus, I really enjoy R.L Stine. He is a nostalgic author for me as I used to read his books (and watch the shows) as a kid. This was a quick, fun read. In many ways, it reminded me of an episode of Scooby Doo (my favorite cartoon of all time). The graphics were well done. The plot was suitably spooky. I can see this being a hit with the middle grade graphic novel loving crowd.
