Should I or someone else add Give Yourself Goosebumps characters to here? I know it has a separate page but seems like they should be with all the other spinoffs here.

It has “Don’t make me take my belt off” as a trope for Michael and says it’s implied that’s how his dad deals with him, but I can’t remember that being in the book.
Apparently you’re supposed to put some witty quote here. Hide / Show Replies

The entry says it's "subtly implied" which means that it may have been in the book, but you simply didn't notice it because it wasn't stated directly. That being said, maybe you should comment it out for a while so other editors can explain how it's subtly implied if it really is implied.
This has been bugging me for a while, so I wanna say I don't think Be Careful what you wish for quite counts for recurring settings. The reasoning is that the Horrorland survival guide says Madame Doom's real name in life was Clarissa the Crystal Woman. But outside of that, they don't have much connection and if you replaced the name in the backstory, no one would really make the connection.
It does seem to be an intended nod though, so that's why I'm just throwing that out there instead of just getting rid of it. Personally I don't think the connection is strong enough but I wanna see how others feel.
