discussion Has anyone read Goosebumps books series

[juustomestari]

My god. I had forgotten all about this series and now suddenly I remembered these and that I read something like 15 of these as a kid. Funny how you forget something like that.

berserk gave me feelings and broke them

I'd be surprised if there was anyone from my generation who hadn't read at least one as a kid

 

[MattShizzle]

No, I was an adult when they came out.

I think I've only ever read one of them. Attack of the Jack O'Lanterns. I'm kind of surprised I still remember its name.

 

[abdoaltreke]

I read several, if you liked the series you should look at the fazbear fright books they are really good short horros stories

Read a lot of them. Welcome to Camp Nightmare was my favourite.

The cover art of Goosebumps series books was always so eye catching as a kid. You had to pick them up.

I read the absolute *fuck* out of Goosebumps as a kid. Goosebumps was my cheat method to get free pizza at Pizza Hut with their Book-It program. I don't think I read the entire series, but I read a significant amount of the early books. I stopped reading once they started coming out in holographic foil. Around that time, I moved on to the Fear Street series, which was Stein's more "adult" (really, it was just mid- to late-teen) series.

That series was good, too.

the author recommended this series for children aged 8 - 12.
However, some sources suggest the books are suitable for readers 9 - 14

They were a nice flavor of diet spooky

 

[TVCrow]

Loved reading them as a kid, easily digestible stories that I could finish in a sitting or two. The covers are iconic

if you recently started reading some of these, one year ago.
how old are you right now?

they are suggested reading for 8 - 12 year olds, maybe up to 14 years old tops

the devil is in the details of what people post in public.

I work at a public library. I'm surprised that Goosebumps tends to be... fairly unpopular, honestly.

Then again, in a match-up between R.L.Stein and Stephen King, King would absolutely slay.

if you work in a library have you ever seen someone 16 years of age or older picking out any of these books for themselves ??

Long time ago, don't remember names but they are pretty cool lowkey thrillers.
