  • The Babysitter II

    Polly Esther Rayon

    eBook (, March 14, 2020)
    Piper the witch, in one final attempt to destroy the twins, makes it count: she sends them back in time to the Salem Witch Trials! Jessica and Elizabeth think they’re going on a field trip to see how the Puritans lived. But after the bus goes through a spooky tunnel, the twins black out and awake in a strange new world: a hybrid of Saccharin Valley and Salem Village. The townsfolk are eerily similar to their own family, classmates and teachers, and are immediately suspicious who look exactly alike but are different people. Now the twins must find Piper’s magic pocket watch before they end up on trial for witchcraft themselves!Did this need to be written? Well, too late. (Now I’ve gotten all of this horror-parody mashup completely out of my system.) Borrows a smidge from Book #54, The Big Party Weekend, then goes completely off the rails. As always, this isn’t really a kid’s book. The original series was aimed at preteen girls, where the twins are twelve. So there’s no blatant sexuality or violence, because it follows the rules of the original series. But there may be some some adult language, dark humor, and “magical” violence.

    Paperback (CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, July 14, 2014)
    “A Sweet Valley Twins Evil Parody” Did you read, and have a love-hate relationship with, Sweet Valley books in the mid-80s to late 90s? Do you also have an affinity for fantasy and horror? Then this parody is for you. While Mr. and Mrs. Wastefeld are on vacation in San Francisco, identical twins Jessica and Elizabeth and their brother Steven are dismayed to learn that they’ll be left with a babysitter yet again. Only this time, she’s young, pretty—and a witch! The Wastefeld kids soon discover that this is no ordinary babysitter. Piper Quintin is not only evil, she’s out to get them. How will they survive the wrath of a teenage girl with supernatural powers? The Babysitter is a horror-parody of books I used to read obsessively as a child and later realized were awful. The Babysitter combines elements of satire and horror, and is kind of meta. If any of it sounds familiar, it's inspired by a few of the actual books in the series, but I took their premises and concocted a plot of my own with original characters. This isn’t really a kid’s book. The original series were aimed at preteen girls, and this book is based on the particular series where the twins are twelve. So there’s no blatant sexuality or violence, because it follows the rules of the original series. There’s definitely some dark humor, and “magical” violence.***NEW AND IMPROVED*** both ebook & paperback now with added footnotes that list every SVT book I reference.
