Evoking Nostalgic Shivers of Fear and Anticipation
R.L. Stine's beloved Goosebumps series, first published in July 1992, has captivated readers for three decades. With over 400-million copies sold worldwide, the series ranks as the second best-selling of all time, trailing only behind J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter books.
The series, which does not focus on moral lessons but brings everyday fears into fightable tales, was created by Stine and quickly became a household name. Stine draws inspiration for his series from his childhood fears and feelings, as well as from TV shows like Tales From the Crypt.
The Goosebumps series centres around young individuals who use wit and imagination to overcome monsters. Some of the popular titles include "Haunted Halloween", "Attack of the Jack!", "Be Careful What You Wish for", and "Stay Out of The Basement".
Stine has penned multiple titles for the series, and his work has been adapted into a TV show, two movies, and a game. In recent news, a collectable box-set with eight best sellers from the Goosebumps series was found at a local Costco.
Despite some titles going out of publication, many are still available at local libraries or online. The series continues to include various titles, with new adventures for readers to explore.
As the series celebrates its 30th anniversary in 2022, it remains a beloved staple in children's literature, bringing fear, excitement, and imagination to readers around the world.
