TERROR TOWN - Jack Kelly
When Matt takes over his older brother's paper route, he takes on something else too, something that has him running for his life. Something that's turning once normal neighbors into monsters, that's turning the pre-dawn town into a nightmare. Is that something Matt's scary new customer - or someone even closer to Matt himself?
MEDAL OF HORROR - Susan L. Williams
Eric and his kid brother Ben both love to swim, but a near-drowning accident has them both scared, especially when Ben tells Eric someone was pulling him down in the pond near their new home. Only Ben can see the ghost-boy, but Eric knows the strange and scary story is true. Then the other accidents start, accidents too deadly dangerous to ignore!
KID WILLIE'S GHOST - Paul Buchanan
A haunted baseball park is only the beginning of Jeff's problems. When the ghost follows him home, the terror really begins! A ballplayer who disappeared twenty years before may be his only hope. But can Jeff find him in time to stop his home-town park from turning into a field of nightmares?
Fright Time #3 (Fright Time, #3) Reviews
-
Kid willie was by far the best story in that book so good
-
About the same as the others, good for younger kids mostly funny to me now. Cheep thrills not very scary. Fun to read though.
-
Terror Town ***
An average tale about a town where the residents are turning into monsters before dawn Reminded me of the game Zombies Ate My Neighbors. Some creepy imagery, but not much else.
Medal of Horror *****
One of the best stories in the series, even as an adult. Has some genuine drama and pathos at the end. There's a ghost boy haunting the pond and trying to kill the main character's brother. Fantastic story.
Kid Willie's Ghost ***
I didn't have as much interest in this story because I really don't care about baseball, but this one is similar to Medal of Horror enough that it's still okay. There's another dead kid ghost haunting a ballpark. I don't remember the other books being so frank about death. This was alright and had a nice ending. -
Fright Time #3 has some great short stories geared for Young Adults. The stories dare to go a little deeper and scarier than other Young Adult horror fiction, and I enjoyed this as it kept the stories interesting. In my opinion, Terror Town was the strongest of the three stories, but there wasn't a miss here - all three were worthwhile. Looking forward to reading the other books in the series!

Spooky.
-
Fun, simple, with the strongest story coming from Susan Williams.
-
Terror Town is my favorite Fright Time story so far. The other two in this collection are also good, solid variety.
-
As a kid, I really liked these. They were scary... Haven't read them since then.. so I cant give a whole lot of insight now.
