For me it was the haunted mask episode
I dunno why, but I always got a boner when watching that episode back as a kid.
Imagine it is not just a mask, but a latex bdsm hood
This is why
for me it was it came from beneath the sink
would
this ones still good. Even though for me it was the prank call police from are you afraid of the dark
I rewatched the whole series a couple of months ago, this one definitely had a stronger narrative than most of the episodes, not just because it was two episodes long (but not split in two parts), it just had a bit more character and story going on, and hitting on some good universal themes kids and adults both can relate to. It also actually improves on the book in several respects like developing the shopkeeper more, and changing it so he flat out refuses to sell the mask and she runs off with it instead of reluctantly selling her it. It was one of the stronger books anyway, but that didn't always result in strong episodes in the series.
For me, it’s the swamp monster
for me, it's that red monster in swimming pools. I couldn't go into swimming pools for years.
The Tale of the Dead Man's Float. Had that little prick Jason Long in it, who was the kid killed in the beginning.
I think that episode was pretty overrated because it tops nearly every single top ten episode lists to the point it's boring.
I never saw a top 10 list. it's the only episode that had an affect on me, so there must be truth for it to be topping lists
Just look up any on youtube.
It's a fine episode. I just think it's not the scariest out there. The Tale of Laughing in the Dark fricked me up worse.
The Tale of the Crimson Clown gave me nightmares.

Didnt remember that one, rewatching now. Its cool the brother & sister arent at eachothers throats like every other TV show.
Wow, that was a great episode, had literal Goosebumps at the end.
which is th3 episode about a road trip and a haunted restaurant or something?
The Tale of the Whispering Walls
thanks im gonna watch. it was creepy when i saw it as a kid.
It's great. Completely different in tone and emotion in regard to the rest of the episodes in the series, I think. Also, there's been a long standing rumor that that episode is what "inspired" The Sixth Sense.
I saw Child's Play and The Night of the Living Dummy almost back to back. Gave me a fear of dolls when I was a kid.
Now it's my fetish.
The scene of all the masks in the shop coming alive and chasing the main girl across the street gave me nightmares.
Nah, the WOOFS along with the song made that part funny, but the rest of the opening was spooky.
>ruff ruuf ruff ruff ruuf!

his goosebumps episodes were 10/10. I was sad when he didn't do more
SOVL
Imagine being an Amerimutt and not being able to have the superior kids horror show: "Are You Afraid of the Dark," with a way spookier intro.
You non Canadians missed out while we got to watch both. Sorry for your loss.
Nobody tell him
Canadians are really bad at trolling aren't they?
Tell him what, that Sarah Gadon was in the show?
Yeah she was in the episode The Tale of the Big Black wiener.
>Kanucked
I can't remember if it was this show or goosebumps or some other weird shit but wasn't there an episode where a group of people kept a big pink blood sucking maggot like creature and were trying to convince kids to drink blood?
Sorry hoser, us burgers got to watch that kino every Saturday night on SNICK
Youre right though. It mogs goosebumps
Was there one about the library police too or am I misremembering?
After rewatching as an adult, a lot of AYAOTD episodes are boring af. There are a few really good scary ones, but most are pretty generic and slow. Goosebumps is always entertaining because its so goofy.
this is true. the best AYAOTD are the absolute best. but overall, goosebumps is better
>AYAOTD episodes are boring af
I think its similar to Goosebumps with the goofiness. The remote that kid finds that stops time is funny, and when that kid wants to grow up and becomes a hockey player getting screamed at lmao
pretty sure the kid that got screamed at by the hockey coach was goosebumps
unless they BOTH had hockey episodes kek
Yea, I think you're right. They do have an Are You Afraid of the Dark where that kid has a hockey themed room, that killer clown or whatever is haunting them.
Lmao, the ghost next door episode was really ridiculous. When Hannah finds out one of the houses burned down in the neighborhood and thinks that the kid that moved in is dead and then finds out she is dead. How the frick did she print out the paper then lmao
Even for Goosebumps, that episode (Don't Go to Sleep) was over the top, everyone is chewing the scenery and mugging for the camera.
There was nothing else we could watch at the time that was spooky
This one actually is scary, but maybe unintentionally. It's a phobia I think when there's a weird contrast of color and uncanniness
Don't look bro I'm gonna scare the juhbeezus outta you
This. It takes itself more seriously which doesn't work when you get older.
Even in the UK we got all these weird little shows which were kino
>tfw you live in Erie, Pennsylvania
Everyone in the states born before '92 watched ayaotd
It was on Nickelodeon in the 90s. However it didn't have reruns after that so Zoomers didn't grow up with it. Goosebumps played all the time on Cartoon Network and The Hub though
Are You Afraid of the Dark was a staple of Nickelodeon in the 90s and was only stopped being regularly shown in the early 2000s. It also aired in the US before Goosebumps.
Fellow Canadihomosexual here, man the intro was kino. Still gives me a chill somehow.
for me its the pool creature
?si=u3u3BosJF8FgQlLl
day of the rake cannot come soon enough
She cute
My favorite "R. L Stein is making fun of us" moment was the mummy episode where the kid becomes heroic and destroys the Mummy's heart after learning that the Mummy could become a living human again if he obtained it.
I believe the line was something like "A real life killer? Nooo!".
So basically, you have a scenario where an animated corpse that cannot die until a certain organ is destroyed, using some sort unknowable magic to sustain itself. This is somehow less scary than a murderer?
>this made zoomers shit their pants
zoomers never saw billy and mandy.
what do you think zoomers are mongoloid? babies?
This surely isn't the Haunted School right?
It's Are You Afraid of the Dark
>there goes the neighborhood
No, but this did.
Not even joking, this gave me nightmares for years after watching it.
Got a link to the scene? Don't think I've seen that before
It's from Neverending Story, bro.
Climactic scene from The Neverending Story, which is really worth seeing on its own merit, not just because it scared kids.
This one scene of the movie is pure kino. Atreyu has no reason to reveal his identity to this killer beast, especially as the world is moments from disappears, but he does anyway purely out of honor and it's not even clear if he wins properly or out of sheer luck from Morc (I think that's it's name) moron leaping straight onto Atreyu's blade.
G'mork, though he was already dying, he just had enough strength for one leap and slash, but that was all it would take to kill Atreyu so it's still a ballsy move to provoke him
I didn't realize G'mork was already dying. It was only recently I rewatched the movie too, don't know how I didn't notice that.
rare jak
I HECKING LOVE SCARING KIDS
what anime
That creature gave millions of kids nightmares for years.
I saw it in theaters as a kid. What's even worse is that one of our neighbors had some breed of dogwolfhusky thing that used to terrorize us kids in the neighborhood. It was quite large, and dark brown and black, like Gmork.
The Gmork scared the shit out of me, and even worse, when we got home, I opened the door to get out of the driver's side passenger door, that evil fricking dog had broken it's chain again and rushed the car in the dark. It didn't bark, or anything. It bit my leg and tried to pull me out of the car, and my dad started slamming the car door on it. After the second slam of the door, it just started growling and I vividly remember feeling the growl on my leg as it tried to pull me out. He kept slamming the door on it, and it finally let go and ran.
Absolute nightmares from the combination of Gmork and that dog for years.
I don't know how much later it was, a week, a month, but it got loose again and tore my cousin's face down the middle.
My uncle was far less forgiving. He just walked over towards their house and the dog came running at him. He then emptied a revolver into it, reloaded, and shot it empty again. He did this three or four times, with the owners screaming at him and I remember him telling them that if they came any closer, he'd put a bullet in them too. I was a kid, so I had no idea what kind of gun it was, but years later when I was older, I asked about it and he still had it. It was a .357, blued steel, wood grip. I realized then that his rage at his son needing 28 stitches to put his face back together would have been enough to have actually shot both of the owners if they had come closer.
That damned beast was still trying to get up and move after he emptied it the first time. All these years later, I've recognized not the specific breed, but it had a frickton of wolf in it.
After the first bite it should have been reported to the authorities and euthanized. This is what's done in any civilized country
Tell me you're a frickwit moron without saying it out loud.
You can go ahead and claim that shit, but you are
A: A stupid frick from a shitpoor country with no clue how the real world works.
Or,
B: A stupid frick that has no idea how shit works in reality.
Money talks, frickwit.
The dad was a deputy. His wife was a daughter of the man who owned a hundred million dollar fertilizer company.
One of my aunts was married to one of the sons of the Mead company at the time. Yes, the fricking pencil and paper company.
There had been multiple reports of that dog trying to attack kids. Thing is, I was in the front yard, and the fence was open in the front.
The back yard was fully fenced, with no access, so we were safe back there.
Cousin was riding his bike in the street over to my house to play down the sidewalk.
I talked to my uncle about it when he showed me the gun, and he said a lot of people argued about it, but the short version was that he did not get in trouble and the dog owners paid a lot of money for surgeries and more to avoid any repercussions.
I had small bruises from the bites, but no broken skin. I was wearing denim jeans, and the dog owners claimed that the dog was just playing, it was harmless, and that it was just sniffing me when my dad smashed it with the door, and that if I had bruises, it was from the door of the car and how could we be sure if it was dark outside?
When my cousin got attacked, a frickton of people saw it and it was daylight.
The US is a literal turd world country. I was talking about civilized countries
So you're a frickwit monkey from a shithole.
Thank you for answering that.
>americans unironically believe the US is the whitest, most civilized country on earth
It was, until it was infested with trash.
But, that's the good nature of white people.
To assume that everyone else shares their same kind, forgiving, good nature.
When in reality, that is not the case.
>until it was infested with trash.
by 1960s, parts of USA were literal ghettos already. just go watch Jason Takes Manhattan. parts of NYC were total shit already.
That's all urban areas. In the 50s and 60s large euro metros like London and Paris had slums so poor that the people living in them couldn't even afford electricity. There were urban flats/apartment blocks in Europe that didn't have indoor plumbing until after WW2.
>It was, until
It never was.
Isn't it time for your dinner of cow shit and toe scrapings before your bath in cow piss?
America never being "the whitest country on Earth" is a fact, talking about your scat fetish is not going to change that.
You will always be low caste, and no matter what you do in this life, your skin will never get any lighter in your next life.
>he's still talking about imaginary Indians to thin air

No it's not, when you stop eating literal cow shit, then you might have some points. But shut your fricking mouth Hasheem and go hit by a fricking train.

What’s the matter bro you don’t like Steve-O’s Hot Sauce For Your Butthole? How about his epic new comedy special Steve-O’s Bucket List that was sooo crazy Netflix wouldn’t even allow it? I fricking love Steve-O man
My childhood friend used to be an alcoholic and now doesn't drink at all. The issue is, he is unfortunately boring as frick off the sauce. Like, you don't even want to hang out with him boring because he just drains all the energy out the room. He used to be energetic and goofy.
Damn, well at least he's not the annoying sober guy that's trying really hard to hide and escape from his impulses.
Thankyou for sharing your story, I'll remember that.

Hello Adam
I'm boiling mad
I'M BURNING MAD
the worst
Best atmosphere in any episode
It's strong but I think Stay Out of the Basement wins that, great lighting in that two parter and it gets to take its time, and the basic premise of "your family member is not your family member" is spooky at any age
It was essentially X-Files for children.
I watched a lot of X-files Goosebumps and AYA throughout elementary school and the plots in these kids shows could really be just as unnerving or disturbing
IDK how to describe it well but some of these childrens ones had a more personal feel to them, like "what's happening in this episode can happen to you" which could make it just as or more uncomfortable to watch..A lot of X-files is shown through the perspective of the FBI agents but Goosebumps/AYA is almost entirely focused on the victims of these spooky circumstances
it was filmed in very "kid way" similar to Skinamarink. thats why goosebumps creeps kids out.
What do you mean exactly? I loved Goosebumps as a kid and still watch my favorites every now and then but I hated Skinamarink
>Skinamarink
i didnt like Skinamarink too. i didnt finish watching it. But goosebumps, the grainy vhs filter, and the blurry Skinamarink film style, is like how a kid views the world. just very in the moment and with lapses with clarity. a kids memory and life is a just a blur and goosebumps and Skin are both blurry out of focus movies.
You looked at the movie the wrong way. It's about a kid/you in your childhood in the 90's and the power going out in your house. Being so young your imagination runs wild and you start to scare your self. Not that you're alone, it's the first time, and everything feels so ominous.
I was born in '90 dude, I know what I'm talking about, and lived a irl "Skinamarink" as a kid.
right, ive heard that before, but the way the film was filmed, and goosebumps, with out of focus shots and blurryness, its like watching a memory. ive been watching quite a few 70s and 80s horror films and the way its so grainy and not overly sharp like ULTRA HD 2880P, it seems like im watching a memory. lol. makes the movie more real. modern movies are way too hd and sharp, even real life isnt as vibrant.
Goosebumps is filmed in a very down to earth way and the vhs quality makes it better. i think i tried to watch The Twilight Zone remake and the screen was just too clear and high definition and too modern.
that would be So Weird
Even as a kid I remember how bullshit that looked.
>MLB claims to be LGBTQ+ friendly
>doesn't allow pegging
How did they fake this, assuming the protagonist was watching and saw him get beaned in the head?
RIP in peace
Impressive eyes
The plant monster was kind of cool in an unintentional SMT kind of way.
This episode had a nice horror atmosphere. Quite a few were more just light sci-fi or fantasy, I preferred when there was a bit more emphasis on the "in for a scare" aspect the intro promised, though I recognize the books hit a variety of tones and subjects.
But my favorites tended to be the ones with some kid friendly sense of dread to them. Haunted Mask, Scarecrow Walks at Midnight, Camp Nightmare, this one, Dead House, Fever Swamp, Piano Lessons, etc.
>that goosebumps stream several years back
Man, I miss those days and the memes.
>when you realize this is a pstd trauma from R.L. Stine accidently watched this dad cum
No. I don't think that's it at all. Maybe go talk to someone.
I'm not allowed outside
Good
They actually did a good casting job in this one, the actress looks very much like the plausible daughter of the father's actor, same dark hair and eyebrows, strong blue eyes, etc. I'm fairly certain the same actress popped up in another episode playing a different character.
Kino, also one of the hottest girls
I love the 90s suburbs in Goosebumps, they look so quaint and peaceful. I think Goosebumps was mostly filmed in Canada but I might be thinking of AYAOTD
>90s suburbs
Just because it was filmed in 1997 doesn't meant it was all built three weeks beforehand. Most of those houses look mid century, or 1970s at the latest. It's just typical north american postwar suburbia prior to the rise of mcmansions in the late 90s.
And yet, they remain 90s suburbs because families lived there in the 90s and tastes and living reflected that regardless of what decade the house was built in.
It's not a "90s suburb" because that implies there is something intrinsic to them that makes them 90s, beyond just existing in that timeframe. Would you call a 1985 Lamborghini a "90s car" just because you saw a picture of one taken in the 90s? Do the suburbs in the show become '2020s suburbs' if you visit them today?
Stop being a zoomer who thinks everything that existed before you were born is "90s".
>show filmed in 1995 with 1995 fashion, 1995 tape cameras, 1995 décor, 1995 hairstyles, 1995 camerawork, starring children of 1995, is NOT 90s ACKSULLY that house was BUILT in a different YEAR you know, silly boy!
>1995 cameras
Camera tech of the 90s was basically the same as it was in the 80s. I don't know what they filmed the show on, but it looks like the same 16mm film used for colour TV since the 1960s.
>90s decor
People weren't redecorating their houses every three years. I guarantee most of the decor was a decade+ old.
>90s camera work
What does this even mean.
So if you go there today it's a 2020s suburb?
Been a while since I've seen a guy this desperate to have an argument.
>90s camera work
>What does this even mean.
Cute.
I know what you mean. I recently looked at my old neighborhood on Google Maps, both the earliest photos (2006 or something) and the most recent, and it's like the soul of the place died.
I wonder if places can have collective auras or energies or something.

I don't remember seeing a breeding alarm in the classroom
where’s Old Kid
yes and this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6b2G8ySKNgA especially the latter since it came on late (late for a child)
There was an episode where the kids learned that their parents were monsters. A local boy tries to scare the family with a fake monster mask, and the parents nearly kill him.
Does anyone the name of the episode? Haven't seen it since the late 90s.
>black kid gets eaten by a family of white vampire-things
omg dis is just like Get Out
He doesn't get eaten, the dad just makes a macabre joke about dessert. Dessert was actually pie. Cherry pie most likely, according to my sources.
I know you're a shitposter, but killing a little kid while trying to blend in is silly. At least Mortman had no family to notice him missing.
well they didn't so that's fine

Do modern kids even know the fricking fear that was watching old school mid 90s/early 2000s murder/crime shows late at night?
Infact I stopped being afraid of movies once I was aware of real life stories.
you grew up but still type like a redditor.
>Infact I stopped being afraid of movies once I was aware of real life stories.
Same, horror movies used to scare the shit out of me and gave me nightmares, now they just bore me.
It's kind of depressig not being able to feel fear from movies anymore. That feeling..gone.

Simply kino
“The Haunted House Game” was an episode I had on dvd as a kid and I must have watched it 100 times. Somehow I forgot all about it until this past October when I was rewatching the show and I don’t think I’ve ever had nostalgia that fricking hard. Nobody ever talks about this episode or the “Chillogy” trilogy that I also watched on dvd a lot. I also had vhs tapes of Stay Out of the Basement and Haunted Mask. There was a big Halloween marathon on Cartoon Network sometime in the late 2000s/early 2010s where they showed a shit ton of Goosebumps back to back and I remember recording as many of them as I could on blank vhs tapes my mom gave me. I later recorded over all of them with Family Guy lol
what was that tv show that talks about scary things with a girl and boy host? i watched it as a kid.
Ridiculousness
it was Mystery Hunters. i found the chick hot as frick.
Who is Christina Broccolini?
Christina was born June 8, 1989 in Montreal, Canada. She has Italian and French ancestry. Her most famous role is Kae from TV series Blue Mountain State. She also appeared in several short movies. As her fans already noticed, Broccolini also has a great body with nice C cup size. We hope to see her in more big roles in future.
Never heard of it in my life but this image was so obnoxiously small I had to fix it
lol thanks. i found her hot as a kid. and apparently she has a nice body too. what do you think? you gotta watch the show to see her talk and stuff. she was quite the eye candy.
?si=ihLJourBCOb-Go8d
check it out. they have a youtube channel and the last vid was from 10 years ago lol.
I don't see anyone in that picture with the intelligence to solve any sort of mystery, and likely that the two teens were molested by the guy in the background.
>slandering Doubting Dave
b***h that's a mistake
She looks similar to another actress but I can't place who
shes half italian half latina. so she looks similar to quite a few other celebs probably. shes quite fine.
she looks like the chick from Ferris Buellers day Off. she was hot as frick too.
The episode where she pretended to be hypnotized was cringe AF
Why were all these shows filmed in Canada in the 90s?
Same reason why so many shows are filmed in Canada now. It's way cheaper.
>Same reason why so many shows are filmed in Canada now
Are they though. It seemed like every TV show in the 90s outside of the things like ER, NYPD Blue, Law and Order etc were filmed in British Columbia.
>So Scully, we're off to Utah to investigate this paranormal case
>Cut scene to them arriving in a greyed out, rainy landscape with giant foggy mountains covered in pine tress.
>Are they though
Practically the entire DC tv-verse is filmed in Canada.
>Ahh, Metropolis TOTALLY NOT VANCOUVER
Jews are gonna charge you literal millions for filming in a NY suburb
It was targeted to a very young demographic. Like I'll admit to getting spooked by a few of the books but I was like.... 6? at the time and kind of a pussy.
I wish I still had all my goosebumps books. A lot of the special edition Give Yourself Goosebumps books I had are worth hundreds of dollars now, and this one I used to have gets close to $1000 sometimes. Pretty sure my mom gave them away to some random kid when I got older
Tim is a really cool dude. He signed my copy of The Blob that Ate Everyone
He signed it in person for you? If so where did you meet him? I like his artwork so much I use it as my wallpapers
not really fair, because I was anticipating a scare whenever it came on.
Barkbarkbarkbarkbark
slappy did
Show or book design?
It always bothered me that he looked different in the show.
for me it was the show version. the book one never really bothered me.
the book version is much scarier imo
The new Goosebumps series has some cute "I recognize this story" moments, but it's nowhere near as soulful
I never bothered even looking at a trailer, not only because I know it's going to be bland looking, but as soon as I heard it's not a proper adaptation of the books but some sort of single narrative with a single cast. I don't give a frick about that, that's not Goosebumps. Adapt the books that weren't adapted in the original series and series 2000, and maybe a few that were adapted rather shakily in the original series, and there, new Goosebumps show.
>Goosebumps
where my Around the Twist bros?
GOATed theme song
Someone on here before asked if anyone knew some sort of horror or at least sci fi kids show he thought was British or Australian, or Canadian (seems broad but excluding American shows is useful), I was intrigued and tried finding it for him but never seemed to click with his recollection, I did find a bunch of quite interesting kids supernatural shows however, this was one of them, Australia seemed to have a lot of cool kids television.
There was also this British one, Children of the Stones, a miniseries from 1977, seems like it was very eerie for a kids fantasy show.
>surpasses KINO
this thread makes me want to buy goosebumps vhs on ebay
That art was everything for Goosebumps, while there's a few duds or just plain odd ones, many of them easily sold the book to kids without needing to know anymore.
I remember even as a kid I was already a pre-incel because I avoided this one for the longest time because I thought the fat Viking woman looked cringey and ugly. Also the Chicken Chicken book

How quickly did you also develop weird sexual fetishes?
I don’t think I have any fetishes that weird really. Nothing violent or involving horror for sure.
Idk if you’re shitposting or not but my friends and I enjoyed that as well. I remember we’d end sleepovers by going on the creepypasta wiki and I would hook my phone up to my guitar amp and I would highlight every word on the page and get the text to speech bot to read it out loud. Nowadays I think pretty much every pasta we listened to is narrated by people on YouTube.
na i was being sincere. weird to see nowadays i know.
>I would highlight every word on the page and get the text to speech bot to read it out loud.

We would get creeped out but then start laughing everytime it would pronounce something funny. We always used the British male voice
i feel so lucky that i grew up in the golden age of creepypastas and online horror

Did anyone buy the books and book fairs/clubs but never read them? I remember I had the whole set for a Birthday present and never read them I just liked the artworks.
Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark was more my jam during the Scholastic book fairs. I had maybe a dozen Goosebumps books, but did read them. The Headless Ghost was my favorite.
That book striked indescribable fear in me when my parents would shut off the lights for the night.
at my elementary school we had this program where you would take a test on any book you would read and you would rack up points to win rewards. I would just do all the goosebump books and answered based off the shows, i got so much free shit kek
I inherited most from my cousin and only read the one's with cool covers.
I recall reading the 4th monster blood, I live in your basement, the one with the drowned girl ghost at the summer camp, horrorland, I think I may have read one of the say cheese and die, It came from beneath the sink, Shock Street and possibly another couple I can't quite recall.
I also read some at least two Fear Street books, The Bug Man lives which had a lot of gross out scab picking chapters and some other one that involved a time traveling ghost of a teenaged guy trying to stop a girl from murdering him in the future that exposed how much of a horny israelite Stein was.
Also now that you've got me thinking about all this,
does anyone remember a short story about a weird kid who comes up with unusual names for things and declares a small cluster of mushrooms to be "yorbles" or something similar sounding? The mushrooms have the ability to mimic objects if disturbed before melting into a vomit like substance. The bully in the book eats a chocolate egg that was actually a "yorble" in disguise and vomits all over himself as a part of the protagonists ruse.
It might have been a R. L Stein short story or something scholastic related.
I honestly never enjoyed these young-adult type of books as a kid. I thought they were campy and lame. Probably why I never got into books, I was brainwashed by TV but its hard to go from watching 80s action films, adult cop shows and war movies to reading boring "spooky" books. Only books I read as a kid were White Fox, Soldiers Heart(both Gary Paulsen) and Bridge to Terrabithia.
youre a girl. thats why.
I remember the the time travel ghost one got really sappy and got romance novel tier with the kissing. I was an early teenager at the time and I even recall thinking "Can the goosebumps guy really write this?".
I can't remember much about it though, I think it was kind of like Stein ripped off Frank the Bunny from Donnie Darko except make Donnie a girl and Frank want to have sex with her at some point, conflicting with his mission to kill her.
Come to think of it, it was a lot like that one movie where some psycho b***h puts a chad in a coma and is half dead limbo ghost ends up wanting to frick her when he should have snapped her neck.
I think I read or my brother explained to me a lot of the original monster bloods so I found it odd that IV was really just the original protagonist fighting an unrelated bio weapon he just assumed was monster blood. Not exactly sure what Stein was thinking with that one, it was a weird trip though either way.
I was so moronic as a kid I think I shipped Evan and Andy as a couple and expected them to finally hook up by the end of Monster Blood 4 and feeling let down by the end of it as a 10 year old. There was never any dating in any of the books iirc
Fear Street had a shared continuity so it's completely possible Stein had teenaged versions of Goosebump's characters in other stories.
I liked Andy and thought Evan was a frickin dweeb so I did not.
>simping for an underage fictional girl this hard
I said I liked her, not I had a sanctified shrine.
I got the 4th monster blood book as a Christmas present the same year I got my Nintendo DS. It was the last book I needed to complete my set of original books. That was the sickest Christmas ever. Monster Blood was the first goosebumps I ever read so it felt like a definitive end to the series by ending it with Monster Blood 4. Kino memories
THE
SCARECROW
WALKS
AT
MIDNIGHT
I'm a zoomer who had the Haunted Mask on vhs and it definitely made me uneasy as a 4 year old. The only episode to really scare me was the Cry of the Cat episode where they open the cabinet and the fricked up cat is inside
Cry of the Cat felt like it was intended for an older audience.
episodes 24 mins but on tv it was 30. fricking commercials.
I owned most of the Goosebumps books, but a few I only read from borrowing from others, or from the library. I was going to borrow Ghost Beach, but I read the whole thing standing there at the shelf in the library instead. I didn't sit down in one of the reading areas because I was thinking I'll go borrow it at the desk after the next chapter, then suddenly the book was finished.
The only one I never owned or found to borrow was the first Night of the Living Dummy, and that one wasn't adapted to the TV show so it's the one that slipped by for me, I read II and III a lot. I think there was a two paragraph summary of the plot in a Goosebumps annual I had, so that's the extent of my knowledge. Now you've reached the end of my two paragraphs and discovered the twist; there was no point, I was just idly reminiscing.
I enjoyed the read
Speed reader? Not that Goosebumps books are long but they're not 10 pages either.
Not that guy, but I read Welcome to Dead House a few years back and it took maybe 40 minutes to finish.
I guess. They're very straightforward so it was never a case of taking a while to read.
Though thinking back, I did finish each of the fat Harry Potter books on the same day I got them so I suppose I read quickly as a kid.
The books even as a five and six year old reading them as they first got big weren't really scary for the most part, but I did get the willies from The Haunted School, Let's Get Invisible and Curse of Camp Cold Lake. I think the concept of slipping into an eerie otherworld existing out of step with the normal world was creepy to me, where it's familiar but wrong somehow or missing some aspect. More abstract than a simple monster, yet in a way it's more tangible since it's still a reflection of the regular world and it's easy to imagine a familiar surrounding just changing to something unknown and unfamiliar. It's disappointing The Haunted School wasn't adapted for TV.
I think this one was kinda like that, they go to some other world where kids go to school still but while at school the kids read using their tongues and eat with their armpits. I remember enjoying it a lot as a kid
The only thing I remember from Camp Cold lake was the ghost girl being desperate for friends. I can't remember jack shit about it otherwise, including the twist.
If I recall, when she has a near death experience, the protagonist finds herself in a dark and greyer version of the camp that's deserted except for the ghost girl, she has to wrench herself out back to the living world and the ghost girl keeps trying to kill her after that to bring her back to the other side.
>blocks your path
Even Gammell's "fun" art is nightmare fuel.
>The Ghost Next Door
anyone watch this? it was unimaginably bad.
>adults
What's the point? Goosebumps is about kids.
I heard this was woke trash
No you didn't
I did from MIcahelGoosebumpsFan on YouTube. Nice guy that guy
it very much is. I have a pretty high tolerance for it but in this show it was egregious.
the curly-haired kid w/ brown hair is gay af, and he had an annoying line in the first episode where he got upset at the small town diner not accepting credit cards because the system was down, or something? Started ranting about how they lived in a cashless society - kind of made me hate him immediately tbh
