Have all of the standard books on a shelf back at my parents' place, but I haven't even touched them for about 5 or 6 years.

That show rocked!!

Around Halloween they had a sh*tload of Goosebumps marathons; it was the coolest thing ever. The books never really interested me when I was little, though. You could read them in, like, ten minutes.

I loved reading those books when I was younger. My mom probably but them in the attic along with my other kids' books.

yea it is makin a comeback. it was on cartoon network for a while with a couple of marathons and they're comin out with new books called goosebumps horrorland. i mean they are kool (and they are very short books) but the new goosebumps horrorland are longer than the original series and a little better. i liked the show also but the actors were very bad actors. i mean they exxagerated a little and acted too scared. i think the only good actors the show's had was the ones in werewolf of fever swamp, stay out of the basement, one night in terror tower, and the haunted mask.

I was into it when I was a kid. I was in the club where they sent you a new book every month, a print of one of the cover paintings, and a magazine. I even had a bedroom set. One year, I'm not sure exactly when, but I was that ventriloquist puppet, I think its name was Slappy or something, for Halloween.

Lil G · 07-29-2008, 04:25 PM

just found out they made a new game called goosebumps horrorland for wii, ds, and ps2.

i also read every goosebumps book from the classic series, which is pretty hard considering the fact that the books were realeased over 10 years ago so... im pretty proud of myself.

*Tinuvielsdreams* · 07-29-2008, 08:19 PM

I loved reading those books, I had a bunch of them and I would always take them out at the library. I remember when the series used to play on Saturdays, it was fun watching a couple again when CN starting to air them again

I used to love reading them when I was a kid (my favorite was "Deep Trouble", the one with the mermaid. I also loved the werewolf ones too, and the ones where you choose different paths to take in the story).

I think I may still have some of them stored away somewhere (haven't read them since I was a kid).

I loved "The Ghosts of Fear Street" and "Fear Street" novels too.

My sister always used to read the books. I looked at the covers and was too scared to read them.

Although, for whatever reason, I was still okay watching the show.

MadPirateBunny · 07-31-2008, 12:00 AM

lol, my boys are 11 & 12 - they LOVE these!

*odupianist* · 07-31-2008, 08:10 AM

man, I haven't read these since I was 15 or so. I stopped reading when I finished a book in a day, but they were good. The last one I got was about those blue monsters and the game of tag with the bro and sis. Beast from the East or something I think. It ended with the kids moving up to a new level when they thought they were done.

That was the second Goosebumps book I ever read ( the first was "It Came From Beneath the Sink"), loved that one!
