Ambiguous Ending | |
| Scariest Book Ever / int_42215dce | comment |
Ambiguous Ending: The kids reunite with the real Uncle Wendell, defeat the book thieves and recover the book. But when they return home to their parents, they discover that Wendell has entrusted them with the book as he feels that their house is the safest place to hide it. Billy plans on storing it in an old dresser he never uses, but after looking at it, he asks Betty if maybe they can take just one peek at the book. The Bookworm told them that if the book is ever opened, it will unleash evil into the world. This is not helped by Billy's dialogue at the beginning of the story, in which he says that he and Betty should have believed the story about the Scariest Book Ever. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Scariest Book Ever / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: When the Man Bat first flies into Betty and Billy's room it tells them to get out. They are too freaked out to pay attention to this, but the bat likely knew that they were not currently with the real Uncle Wendell and was trying to warn the children that they were in danger. | |

Adults Are Useless | |
| Scariest Book Ever / int_a939d96a | comment |
Adults Are Useless:This is actually a big part of the plot. At the beginning, Betty and Billy's parents drop them off at Uncle Wendell's house and quickly leave them there without making sure Wendell is present at the house or meeting him at all because they didn't want to miss their flight. As a result, the twins meet and interact with two different people who claimed to be the real Uncle Wendell | |
