Bookroo's summary

Al's chemistry experiment goes awry, creating an ooze that turns everything it touches into mindless versions of themselves. As the ooze spreads, Al must race against time to stop it before he becomes its next victim. Will he find a solution, or will the ooze consume everything he holds dear?

From the publisher

A boy’s failed science experiment develops a mind of its own in the eighth book in the Ghosts of Fear Street middle grade series from master of horror R.L. Stine–now with a brand-new look! Al isn’t impressed with his new chemistry set. The stink bomb he made doesn’t explode. And it doesn’t smell. It just sits there. Then it starts to ooze. It oozes all over the cat. It oozes all over Al’s best friend. And everything the ooze touches seems different somehow, dumber–as if the ooze were making their brains turn to ooze. Al doesn’t know what to do when the ooze starts coming for him. Can he find a way to stop it before it’s too late?
