From left to right: Calling All Creeps, The Beast from the East, and Night of the Living Dummy. The top left and bottom right corner has bright green slime design. The top right has the Sword & Key logo. The top text reads “it’s one hell of a first date” in blue script. The middle is the logo of Monster Crush with a blue/pink tentacle making a heart shape with a green webbed/clawed hand and the words “monster” in green slime block font and “crush” in red script. The bottom text is neon pink and says “date 107-Goosebump and Grind”.

Before Monster Crush takes its Summer Break we wanted to bring back the nostalgia of Summer Reading, especially with the wonderfully scary monsters from the Goosebumps series!
