Goosebumps (series)
Does anyone like R. L. Stine's greatest masterpiece or one the spin-offs. Or do you just want to talk Goosebumps. I will begin writing about the books & anyone is free to post pictures.

Re: Goosebumps (series)
I read some of the Goosebumps as a kid. I watched the show, a few times, too. I liked A Night in Terror Tower. (I think that's what it was called, anyway)
I think I read a Fear Street book, too. The Stepsister, maybe?

Re: Goosebumps (series)
I much preferred the Give Yourself Goosebumps series. I hate reading, but when I can choose my own adventure, I get into the books a lot easier. I didn't mind the show, but I liked Are You Afraid of the Dark a whole lot better.

Re: Goosebumps (series)
I like all of the books & Give Yourself Goosebumps was a highlight for me. I only have one though (Trapped in Bat Wing Hall #3) which was pretty good, but I have been studying other books too.Shay wrote:I much preferred the Give Yourself Goosebumps series.

What do you have Shay?

Re: Goosebumps (series)
Well I don't own any Goosebump books anymore. Most of my books now are mangas and Pagan books. I need to get Absolute Power (one of my favorite books of all time) and replace my stolen copy of The Abhorsen series. But I probably won't invest in any Goosebump books until I have kids.

Re: Goosebumps (series)
Why the shock? They're childrens' books, and Shay is in her mid 20s. I think I stopped reading the series when I was about 11.

"Are you afraid of the DarK" was where it's at. When that giant pinall was chasing the guy in the mall all Indiana Jones like.

Re: Goosebumps (series)
I almost did that too. But I sucked it up & read The Haunted Mask. I've been a fan of series ever since.sizz wrote:I was about eight when i first saw them in the library, but i decided they looked too scary and never read them.

Re: Goosebumps (series)
Yup. I had that exact set. I recently found out that they have since come out with another (maybe even two) to the series. I MUST get these and read them. This series is the only time I was able to read through an entire book back to back without getting bored or falling asleep. In fact, I actually stayed up for 36 hours straight reading them back to back. (I'm a slow reader, don't judge me.)Stateless wrote:This one? - It's a very good seriesShay wrote:The Abhorsen series.

Everyone's going off topic. We're talking about Goosebumps, not the Abhorsen series. Come on!KecleonFan wrote:Does anyone like R. L. Stine's greatest masterpiece or one the spin-offs. Or do you just want to talk Goosebumps. I will begin writing about the books & anyone is free to post pictures.

I need to buy a new hoodie today. I love hoodies and the zipper came off another one and I only got one left!

I bought new jeans last week, because my old ones were too loose.

Re: Goosebumps (series)
I actually just got a new shirt in the mail today. Of course, it was from woot. My supervisor apparently buys woot shirts all the time as well. He was wearing one on Friday that I recognized and now we have conversations about the past and upcoming derbies.
Also, this one time at band camp...

That movie made me wish I was in band.
Hah, I typed "bang" at first. I love my fingers.
Shut up.

Re: Goosebumps (series)
No, Shay and I both said we read some. But I'm pretty sure it's been over 15 years since I read any of them.
