Jodie is the main protagonist of the twentieth Goosebumps book, The Scarecrow Walks At Midnight, and its television adaptation.
History[]
Jodie and her brother Mark visit their grandparents' farm for a month every summer. She has fond memories of time spent with her grandparents.
In the summer that the book takes place, Jodie notices that her grandparents have changed; Grandma Miriam no longer makes her famous chocolate chip pancakes, and Grandpa Kurt no longer tells scary stories at night. In addition to these changes, Jodie notices that scarecrows move throughout the farm on their own.
Convinced that Sticks, the son of her grandparents' farmhand, Stanley, is moving the scarecrows to scare Mark and her, Jodie devises a plan to scare Sticks. She dresses Mark up as a scarecrow and intends to convince Sticks that the scarecrows are alive. Unfortunately, she realizes some of the scarecrows really are alive; her plan backfires, causing Stanley to wake up the remaining scarecrows.
The scarecrows descend upon Jodie and her family, but she is saved by Sticks, who burns the scarecrows to ashes.
Jodie is in her grandparents' living room when Stanley reads a new chant, awakening the stuffed bear standing in the living room as decoration. The bear licks its lips and growls at her hungrily. Her fate is uncertain.
