Item-Level Details

Adapted Into: School of the Living Dead (Graded Reader) (Gamebook)
User Summary: You had a penpal in New Orleans who went missing after Hurricane Katrina. Her family had some connection with voodoo and so you think she may have become a zombie. A new girl at your school resembles your penpal and seems a bit zombie-like... is she your penpal, and a zombie?
Dtar's Thoughts:

Crazy title, crazy premise for a story. The main story line involves your penpal, a second storyline is highly suggestive of the film Reanimator. Not a very good story, in my opinion. Also beware of the cringe-inducing regional humor in the letters between you and your pen pal that are shown before the actual story begins.
