This ''then'' causes Larry to ask him what Howie rhymes with, to which he replies, "Zowie!"

The ''Literature/{{Goosebumps}}'' book we can't glibly sum up in one sentence without completely spoiling it.
When Larry finds a discarded bottle of fake tan, he and his friends are sure it will help them win their school's upcoming Battle of the Bands. But things soon start to go bad. Larry's growing thick, dark hair all over his body. Even in places people don't normally grow hair. The same thing is happening to all his friends. They don't appear to be werewolves... but just what is going on?

The ''Literature/{{Goosebumps}}'' book we can't glibly sum up in one sentence without completely spoiling it.
When Larry finds a discarded bottle of fake tan, he and his friends are sure it will help them win their school's upcoming Battle of the Bands. But things soon start to go bad. Larry's growing thick, dark hair all over his body. Even in places people don't normally grow hair. The same thing is happening to all his friends. They don't appear to be werewolves... but just what is going on?
This book was adapted into episode 13 of the first season of [[Series/{{Goosebumps}} the TV series]].
