According to Stine's website, “A spring night…soft moonlight… five beautiful Prom Queen candidates…dancing couples at the Shadyside High prom — these should be the ingredients for romance. But stir in one brutal murder — then another, and another — and the recipe quickly turns to horror. Lizzie McVay realizes that someone is murdering the five Prom Queen candidates one by one — and that she may be next on the list! Can she stop the murders before the dance is over — for good?

The book was published in 1992.

As for this new Fear Street, it will feature a new cast of characters. It's unknown when the new horror flick from R.L. Stine will be released, but it's bound to keep you up at night once it is.
