Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: Your character's mother, who calls you "smoochykins" as soon as she gets back home. The embarrassment she gave you indirectly leads to one of the storylines — as you offhandedly said to Jenna, "I wish you're my mom."... | |

| Scream of the Evil Genie / int_20a14df0 | comment |
Wrong Genre Savvy: At one point, you are stranded on an island when a parrot appears and you then have the choice of whether or not to follow it. If you figure that a parrot has to be bad news, the book complains about your ingratitude and says that if you've read the series before, you should have known the parrot was trying to help you. You're allowed to continue only if you say this is your first Give Yourself Goosebumps book. | |

Leaning on the Fourth Wall: Refusing to follow a talking parrot results in the book pointing out that a fan of the series would have known that the parrot was obviously important, and would have helped in someway (but offers you a pass if you're new to the series.) | |

Be Careful What You Wish For | |
| Scream of the Evil Genie / int_b06bbf4b | comment |
Be Careful What You Wish For: An ongoing theme throughout the book — sometimes, it causes minor difficulties, but you're able to correct them without much difficulty. Often though, your less thoughtful wishes spark off some really bad things happening, including wishing you were "anywhere but here" and getting stranded on an island, accidentally transporting a monster into your house, wishing you could experience the video game you're playing in real life, and being transported into the game (you weren't even trying to make a wish that time) and wishing you were beautiful and becoming a beautiful painting. | |

Now What?: An ambiguous ending from the second storyline have you realizing your mother is trapped in Jenna's coke can after your off-handed wish about wanting Jenna to be your mother. You then destroy the coke can, killing Jenna in the process, and successfully releasing your mother... only she's now five inches tall, nagging you for starting this whole mess, and blaming your brother for starting a rock party in the house. The book then stops right there. | |

Exact Words: Jenna had a tendency to screw you over by twisting your wish. Want to stay beautiful forever? She turns you into a painting. Want to be famous? She'll turn you into the main star of a Barney and Friends-like TV show which you loathe. Randomly commenting that you wish your brother to "shut his mouth"? Jenna then removes his mouth permanently. Wish you never met Jenna? She transports you to a time before you meet her... 80 years ago. | |

Never Trust a Title: The book doesn't actually feature an evil genie; Jenna, the titular genie, is more of a Jerkass who's just fed up with having to grant people's wishes. In the endings where she directly does something bad to you, it's less out of malice than because she's desperate to be free. She even warns you in advance that she's unable to grant wishes for the death or injury of someone else. | |
