The Wrong Number

One of Stine's earlier works, The Wrong Number proved simple but fun as two best friends navigate the death of a woman on Fear Street.

Starting out with harmless prank calls by Deena and Jade and Deena's brother , Chuck, the mood quickly escalates into dangerous territory when they call the wrong person!

This story reminded me a bit of the movie Lisa in that it features a similar set-up and follows an innocent duo (in Lisa, it focuses on one girl) as they work together, quite bravely and a little foolishly, to prove Chuck's innocence and uncover the true murderer.

Packed with fun tension and a shocking ending!
