5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent mystery with a terrifying twist, 22 Aug 2003
By Ms. L. J. Waldron (Bristol, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book was certainly one of a kind. It was the first point horror book i'd read. So i was expecting corny predictible plots, but i was wrong.
In a nutshell one of the 'populars' at Margaret's school is suddenly found dead at the bottom of the lighthouse on the rocks below. Most people think she fell but Margaret think she was pushed- and she's determined to find out who.
When Margaret is invited to the school prom she's over the moon but then suddenly she's viciously attacked and somebody want's to kill her.
It's not long after when another girl is attacked. Margaret knows somebody dosen't want the prom to happen. And she desperately followes on the murderer's trail.

The book is so well written from the start. There is about 10 suspects. All female and all the same age. The book tricks you all the time. As you add the clues up and believe you have the killer new evidence is found and you're proved wrong. And at the end of the book, when you find out who the killer is in a terrifying scene, it is the person you least expect.

I have yet to find a better point horror book and in my opinion Diane Hoh certainly gripped me and i'm sure many other readers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Point Horror !!, 18 Jan 2009
By S. Sweeting (Yorkshire, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
WOW!
Personally, I adore the Point Horror series and this book is one of the greatest. A sign of a brilliant horror book is one that keeps you guessing right up until the end. This book certainly does that! I would read a chapter and be sure I knew who the culprit was and then another suspect would pop up out of nowhere. With a lot of the point horrors you can guess who the culprit is at some point in the book, but with Prom Date it was a completely different case.

Toomey High is like every high school; the popular group rules the school. But when Stephanie has a terrible "accident" (trust me I aren't giving anything away, Stephanie's death is mentioned on the back of the book!) and so does one of her friends, its clear someone is up to something. But thanks to Diane Hoh we don't know who that person is until we get to the point of screaming because we want to know so badly!

I would recommend this book to anyone and hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

I thougth Prom Date was GREAT it was quite spooky and you would never guess who the murderer was because all the way through the book it makes you think it is someone else. Read more
