The adult masks that fuse onto your face, and the thing with Kirsten and that emerald castle. Gives me the shivers! I said Isle of the Dead, because the idea of the people rowing the ship being forced to work is seriously creepy. And it was extra spooky when they started to break free and try to get into the gambling room of the ship. The description of their torn fingers and stuff was creepy in the most awesome way. And then there's the visions of the past. Those were cool. I wish Rodda would write more books in the universe with more creepy, horror-esque themes. That'd be awesome. DQ 1- The Valley of the Lost Evil Fardeep was so scary especially with his creepy monsters that were tied to his flesh! DQ 2- The Isle of Illusion The Arachs scared the heck out of me! DQ 3- also a tie between Shadowgate and The Isle of the Dead The way Emily Rodda depicted Verity, her defiance and bravery was amazing! Laughing Jack and his crew chilled me to the bone. When Jasmine, sobbing ripped the mask of Liefs head and he was screaming abuse at her. His face was bloody, torn and scarred. That scared me and I stayed away from masks for about a year!
