* TauntingTheTransformed: In one of plotline, you play around with a time-controlling clock that ends up [[FountainOfYouth regressing you and your cousins to babies]], but it takes a few minutes for anyone to realize [[DeathByDeaging the danger]]. Until then, your cousins poke fun at each other as they get younger, with Abbey teasing Kip about how chubby he is all of a sudden, while Kip retaliates by pointing out how short Abbey's gotten and laughs at [[ShapeshiftingExcludesClothing how huge her clothes are]].

The ''Literature/GiveYourselfGoosebumps'' book where you meet a knight.
"Your" cousins have come to visit from England, and have each brought a crate full of armor and a curse. Choosing one will send you on a bizarre adventure, and you must survive long enough to get back home safely.
----
!!This book provides examples of the following:
* AllJustADream:
** Averted in one of the good endings where your cousins believe you had a nightmare about the curse on your family, but you come across a pile of burned metal, proving it wasn't a dream.
** In one of the bad endings, you managed to escape the hedge maze and return to the present... ''without'' defeating the Evil Knight. You then assume your entire adventure to be a dream and decide to go back to bed. But then the Evil Knight shows up at your bedside.
* AnimatedArmor: The titular armours, which the book identifies as "The Good Knight" and "The Evil Knight". The latter is sentient, and awakens itself in the dead of night, dragging you and your cousins into an adventure all the way back in Medieval England.
* BlackKnight: The main villain of the adventure, a suit of armour made of black metal once belonging to an Evil Knight who gained sentience.
* BritishStuffiness: For your British cousins; averted with Kip Saxton, who hangs out well with you, but played straight with Kip's older sister Abby Saxton who often "sounds like she's a queen".
* ButThouMust: The beginning of the book gives you the option to ''ignore'' the cursed armour's screams and wait until morning. Choosing that choice... and your cousin will drag you out of bed to the garage to investigate the armour.
* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin:
** The main villain is called "The Evil Knight". He is indeed very, very evil.
** Also, the book's title sounds like R.L. Stine making a random {{Pun}} on the saying "Knight in Shining Armour". But as it turns out within the story, the Evil Knight's armour is indeed capable of screaming -- your adventure is kicked off when you hear the sound of mysterious screaming coming from the garage where the armour is kept...
* EvilOldFolks: The [[MultipleHeadCase three-headed]] gardener.
* ForDoomTheBellTolls: The resurrected ghost monks can be put back to rest if you ring a bell on a church tower. ''Actually'' doing so without getting killed is harder than it sounds, however.
* IntercontinuityCrossover:
** The titular object of ''Literature/TheCuckooClockOfDoom'' shows up during this adventure, and much like in the original story, screwing with it indiscriminately will result in RapidAging for you.
** Shortly after the Evil Knight comes to life in it's armour, you are then attacked by legions of [[Literature/YouCantScareMe Mud Monsters]]. Fittingly enough, in their original debut, these monsters are said to be born of restless souls of unfortunate Medieval-era peasants.
* LosingYourHead: This fate can befall you and your cousins as you entert a trophy room full of disembodied heads. All three of your heads will end up being swapped, and you must find a way to get them re-attached while remotely controlling your body before the decapitation becomes ''permanent''.
* MadnessMantra: The ghost monks' chant, which they repeat ad nauseum the moment they materialize in front of you (this inadvertly gives you a clue on how to defeat them later on):
--> "No bells tolls for us! No bells tolls for us! No bells tolls for us!"
* TheMaze: A difficult hedge maze is an unavoidable part of your adventure, and if you fail to solve it, the book then says you'll succumb to becoming part of the soil and feeding the plants which made up the hedge.
* MoonLogicPuzzle: In one section, you're being chased up a bell tower by some ghost monks, who want to make you one of them. You reach the bell, and there is a kettle of black liquid, which probably won't even harm ghosts, and when you reach for the bell, the monks cower, which means they obviously fear the bell for some reason, so naturally you next choice is to ring the bell. No! What you're meant to do is pick up the kettle, which is too heavy for you, and then fall over and ring the bell by accident! Pulling the rope to ring the bell causes it to break, giving the monks time to catch up to you...
* MultipleHeadCase: The three-headed gardener has... three heads. And attempts to (and in one bad ending, actually succeed in) transform you and ypur two cousins into a fused-together monster with one body sharing three heads.
* ProudBeauty: "Your" cousin Abbey. She starts out just seeming like a jerk but turns out to be more of a LovableAlphaBitch by the end.
* {{Pun}}: At one point in the adventure you can come across a young page-boy in training, who identifies himself as page-boy no. 48. The page you meet him? Page 48.
* RapidAging: In one section, you and your cousins are being aged rapidly by the Keeper of Time, but you manage to kill her by speeding up time yourself, as she is already older, so she ages and dies first (though it's pretty close, seeing as how fast you are all aging).
* SkewedPriorities: In the trophy room full of heads, your cousin Kit is so pre-occupied making faces at a gargoyle that he doesn't realize his sister's head has been swapped (you did). Or the same thing is about to happen to him.
* TakenForGranite: You can enter a valley full of statues, victims cursed by the Evil Knight after failing to escape. And yes, you might end up becoming one of the statues if the Knight catches you.
* TimeStandsStill: In one section, you can find a three-faced clock. You can then learn the hard way in one bad ending that the handless face of that clock stops time forever if you touch it.
