R. L. Stine returns to one of his most popular sagas, Cheerleaders, with this entry in the Super Chiller series. The New Evil continues the story of Corky, Deborah, and Kimmy, the last survivors of The Evil, a malevolent spirit that possesses people and forces them to commit mischievous acts, and even murder. This time around, Corky and her friends suspect that The Evil has escaped from its icy grave once again, and is causing a series of horrible accidents among the school's cheerleader squad. So Corky and the girls come up with a plan to trap the evil spirit once and for all, with shocking results.
Although the Cheerleaders saga is one of the sillier sagas in the Fear Street series, Stine amps up the chills and thrills in The New Evil, delivering a superbly enjoyable and twist-filled story, which even has a couple of truly scary moments, a rarity in the Fear Street series. Like the other entries in the Super Chiller series, this is a notch above the usual, and one helluva fun horror tale. Recommended for fans of Fear Street, the Cheerleaders saga, or for readers looking for a short, fun, horror read.
