More & More & More Tales to Give You Goosebumps / int_170128e9 | comment |
Right Behind Me: When telling Spenser and Beth about how they look like elves, their friend Ted points out that their red-and-green boots make them look the part. Beth replied bitterly that their mother found them on sale, and they really hate them. That's when their mother comes trudging up the hill, asking, "You really hate what?" Beth hastily replies that she meant nothing, then quickly asked her what she was doing here. | |

Pay Evil unto Evil | |
More & More & More Tales to Give You Goosebumps / int_1d18887f | comment |
Pay Evil unto Evil: Generally, one should not let your older siblings be taken into unsafe and unfair working conditions where you will never see them again. However, Spenser and Beth have spent the whole story bullying Diana and making her miserable. They also found out Santa Claus was real, even though they told her he wasn't. Diana finds them with Santa's elves, with the elf asking if she's their sister. Diana parrots their words that the twins have always said she's not their sister, and doesn't even need a Death Glare to sell it. To top it all off, she cheerfully tells the elves to mention to Santa she was good this year. Isn't karma a bitch? | |

Watch Out for That Tree! | |
More & More & More Tales to Give You Goosebumps / int_1ec7ea4a | comment |
Watch Out for That Tree!: Wynona (while posing as her twin) is racing down a slope, and Bobby sticks out one of his skis to try and trip her, which she narrowly misses. But in her doing so, she slid down a steeper slope, and crashed hard into a tree. Luckily, she wasn't seriously hurt. However, it turns out that Bobby himself many years ago ran into this trope by racing his twin down the slope, and ran straight into a tree. That time, he was killed instantly. | |

Ironic Echo: Mrs. Spooner shows the children her recipe of Marshmallow Surprise, saying that they would find it delicious after they ate it, but then revealed that it would kill them. It doesn't actually work, but they do transform into werewolves, to which they then ate her. Marsha declares their meal to be Marshmallow Surprise, to which her brothers find it delicious. | |

Got Me Doing It: Beth is not pleased to find that the enchanted Holly Jolly Holiday videotape is affecting her as well; when she resists her father's sugar cookies, she says, "Oh, dearie me!" She then gasps as she realized what she had said, sounding just like Susie Snowflake, and then sees herself in the mirror to realize that she's changing as well. | |

Kick the Dog | |
More & More & More Tales to Give You Goosebumps / int_34dcfc96 | comment |
Kick the Dog: Spenser admits he and Beth shouldn't tease their little sister Diana, but it's so much fun because of her reactions. They not only say she's not really their sister, but refuse to let her ride in their new sleigh after making her pull it (with them on it) up a hill, and tell her Santa Claus isn't real. When their mother comes to take Diana home since it's getting dark, the twins quickly start sledding because they know they're in trouble and need to get out of dodge. Getting punished at home would have been lighter than being mistaken for runaway elves. | |

She then goes Oh, Crap! when her mother is quite serious about having baked the cookies, and her hair has changed color while watching the videotape with Jodi. | |

Not What It Looks Like: Marsha damaged Mrs. Spooner's mailbox by accident. She is all prepared to knock on the front door, apologize to Mrs. Spooner, and pay for the damage. Her brothers grab her and say they're leaving, only for Mrs. Spooner to come out. It looks as if they're trying to run away and have broken the mailbox on purpose. Indeed, when Mrs. Spooner lists the terrible things they did, she believes that Marsha's intentions were malicious. | |

Bad Santa | |
More & More & More Tales to Give You Goosebumps / int_5a71be2d | comment |
Bad Santa: Santa Claus is no jolly man that is Nice to the Waiter. He sentences the kids, mistaking them for runaway elves, to eighteen-hour shifts for five years as punishment, and then maybe they'll have a measly two day vacation only if they work hard enough. Beth and Spenser have to point out that they are real kids and they have a home with loving parents for him to even consider that they might be telling the truth. Even then, Santa tells the elves holding Beth and Spenser captive that the kids get one chance to prove their real identity but if they're lying? It's back to the North Pole, for life. This is what happens. | |

More & More & More Tales to Give You Goosebumps / int_5f6c6cc1 | comment |
Can't Get Away with Nuthin': Rachel and Wynona are identical twins whom have been hired as skiing instructors. They decide to lie that Wynona was sick and couldn't make it, so they can alternate teaching the kids as the other twin gets to ski for free rather than the two of them getting a free skiing day just once. It backfires when someone starts playing pranks on them, and they suspect an obnoxious camper named Bobby Judd. It turns out Bobby is a ghost who lures identical twins into dangerous, usually fatal skiing races. | |

(The blog in question is written with Plausible Deniability but enough hints to indicate the "anthology" that she mentions. She confirms it in the comments) | |

Ambiguously Evil | |
More & More & More Tales to Give You Goosebumps / int_853b7948 | comment |
Ambiguously Evil: Susie Snowflake on the videocassette. While she does brainwash the family and compel them to watch her holiday special on loop, they don't actually do anything evil. Part of the humor of the story is that Beth finds her parents and sister calling each other "dearie" to be more horrifying than anything else. That said, she's still overwriting their personalities and robbing them of their free will. | |

Adaptational Dumbass: Generally speaking, Santa is usually portrayed as a man with hundreds of years of wisdom and experience, and is quite intelligent. Most portrayals probably wouldn't be Incompetent enough to mistake two children for elves and not do a proper check to make sure. | |

Mind Rape: What the video tape does to people who watch it. Prolonged exposure not only physically transforms living creatures to make them resemble Susie Snowflake as close as possible, it gradually brainwashes them into becoming sugary sweet drones that only want to watch "A Holly Jolly Holiday" over and over again. | |

More & More & More Tales to Give You Goosebumps / int_8e623473 | comment |
Bait-and-Switch Sentiment: The kids tell Mrs. Spooner they have to leave the house before dark. It seems they have a curfew. When Mrs. Spooner refuses to let them go, they seem to get increasingly frantic, especially as she reveals the hot chocolate she served them will melt their bones. Then it gets dark, and the full moon comes up. The kids face her, and reveal they wanted to leave before transforming into werewolves. Since they're trapped and mad at her for trying to poison them, you can guess what happens next. | |

Asshole Victim | |
More & More & More Tales to Give You Goosebumps / int_8ed5c6e4 | comment |
Asshole Victim: Spenser and Beth. They're mean to their little sister, even though as Spenser admits, it's a mean thing to do. Thanks to the pair staying out late in the matching snowsuits their mother bought them, Santa's elves catch them and mistake them for runaways. When the elves give the twins a chance to prove their identity, they ask Diana. Diana calmly points out they always said she wasn't their sister, and that they also told her Santa wasn't real. Cue the twins being dragged back to the North Pole for eternal labor. | |

The Hunter Becomes the Hunted: Marsha and her brothers Ricky and Ronnie reveal to Mrs. Spooner that there is a reason for their rambunctious nature. Even so, they were willing to let her go in peace until she poisoned the hot chocolate that she had served to them, to turn them into marshmallows. They reveal they are werewolves, and were trying to leave to beat the full moon, but they are angry that Mrs. Spooner tried to kill them. Oh, and they're still hungry. The kids in wolf form pounce on her and make short work of Mrs. Spooner. | |

What You Are in the Dark: Diana finds out that Santa's elves are real and holding her older siblings hostage, having mistaken them for runaway workers. She comes to answer the door, and Beth and Spenser tell her that they are family. The elves ask Diana if the kids are her sisters. Diana takes a moment. Then she calmly points out that they always said she was not their sister, and they also said Santa wasn't real. Cue the elves dragging her siblings back to the North Pole, and Diana cheerfully asks them to tell Santa she was good this year. Yeah, Diana failed this, but you can see why since the twins are monsters. | |

Show Within a Show: "A Holly Jolly Holiday" is described by Beth as the most nauseating Christmas special ever created. Her sister Jody loves it unironically. All we can gather from what Beth says is the movie is about Susie Snowflake, a redheaded woman and mother who goes around spewing Christmas cheer out of every orifice. She sings, dances, bake cookies, warms the heart of a grouchy neighbor, and has at least one song and dance routine with Santa. | |

Don't Tell Mama: Diana goes to tell their mother about Spenser and Beth bullying her again when she comes to take Diana home in the evening. The twins hightail it out of there because they know their mother will probably confiscate the sled, read them the riot act, and ground them forever if she hears about the twins bullying their little sister again. It would have been a lighter punishment than what Santa gives to runaway elves since he and the real elves mistake the twins as lazy workers. | |

Exact Words: A pair of older siblings enjoy telling their little sister she isn't related to them because she doesn't resemble them or their parents. When the siblings are mistaken for a pair of Santa's elves (they're short, have red hair, and were wearing red-and-green clothes that could easily let someone mistake them for elves) and taken to the North Pole, they try to get their sister to vouch for them. And she says "but you always told me I wasn't really your sister. You always said I wasn't related to you at all." The siblings are dragged away as their sister asks for them to make sure Santa doesn't forget her. | |

Homemade Sweater from Hell | |
More & More & More Tales to Give You Goosebumps / int_f32e02af | comment |
Homemade Sweater from Hell: Storebought variant. The mother of the protagonists of "Santa's Helpers" buys discounted ugly green and red snowsuits for them. This ends up getting them mistaken for elves. | |

Easily Forgiven | |
More & More & More Tales to Give You Goosebumps / int_f36c4f98 | comment |
Easily Forgiven: Played With. While under the influence of the skates that turned him into a monster, Max gets very physically violent with his friend Steve during a game. Max slams him hard to the ground and shakes him while on the ground, which angers and upsets Steve. After he managed to leave the rink and take the skates off, turning him back to normal, Max goes back to Steve to apologize. Even though Steve accepts it and offers to skate with him more later, he still seems quite taken aback from him, and Max seriously wonders if he had just lost his best friend forever. | |

Twin Switch: The twin protagonists pretend to be each other while they are ski instructors, so one can have fun on their own. This ends up going sour since they deal with a ghost who only goes after twins. | |

Santa's Existence Clause | |
More & More & More Tales to Give You Goosebumps / int_f7d724e6 | comment |
Santa's Existence Clause: Spenser and Beth tell Diana that Santa Clause isn't real, so they're still getting presents for Christmas no matter how they behave. They find out to their chagrin that Santa is not only real but also a capitalist jolly man that enslaves elves with 18-hour shifts and vacations after two years. He also mistakes them for elves and wants to punish them for "running away" during the holiday rush. | |

Cool Big Sis: Despite the fact that Beth and Jody are extremely different in terms of personality, they have this relationship with each other. Jody gifts Beth with wrestler-themed Christmas presents, from magazine subscriptions to videos of The Krusher. Beth admits that while their tastes are widely varying, Jodi is nice to have as a sister. | |

BigSisterInstinct | |
More & More & More Tales to Give You Goosebumps / int_f8d24fbb | comment |
Big Sister Instinct: Twin sister instinct. Wynona has this reaction when the camp director tells her that Bobby Judd murders would-be skiers, and says that they need to save her "friend" on the slope, her twin sister Rachel whom she's impersonating. The camp director doesn't help by saying that Bobby Judd only goes after identical twins. | |

The Dog Bites Back | |
More & More & More Tales to Give You Goosebumps / int_fb3576b2 | comment |
The Dog Bites Back: Beth and Spenser have been teasing their little sister by saying she's not related to them and that there is no Santa Claus. They also make her pull a sled up a high hill with them sitting on it, before taking off without her. Quite fittingly, thanks to them wearing red and green snowsuits and staying out too late, they're kidnapped by Santa's elves who mistake them for runaway workers. They try to prove who they really are to avoid eighteen-hour shifts for two years and lead the elves to their house. Diana answers the door, sees that Santa is real and her siblings are at his elves' mercy. She then calmly answers that they've always said that she's not their sister and they also said Santa Claus doesn't exist. Cue the elves dragging the two "liar" twins back to the North Pole and Diana asking them to tell Santa she was good this year. | |

More & More & More Tales to Give You Goosebumps / int_fdd2bdbf | comment |
Santa's Sweatshop: The working conditions of Santa's workshop are bad enough that some elves try to run away. When Santa mistakes the kids for the escapees, he sentences them to 18 hour shifts for five years, with a mere two day vacation afterward. | |

You Called Me "X"; It Must Be Serious: When checking on her father, whom she sent into the den to try and snap her mother and sister out of their trance, Beth hears him say, "In hear, dearie." Upon hearing him call him "dearie", which is what Susie and her brainwashed family called each other, Beth immediately realizes that he's been changed by the movie as well. | |
