In recent years, Goosebumps has returned to print with some new series including Goosebumps Horrorland which took some of readers’ favourite villains including Slappy the Dummy and the Lawn Gnomes. The recommended Goosebumps reading level is for Year 4/ 3rd Grade upwards, but plenty of adults and teens also love the books. The books are scary but not violent, with plenty of twists and lots of humour too, and so can be enjoyed by thrill-seeking readers aged 8+. There are now over 60 Goosebumps books in the original series, now largely out of print, several spin-off Goosebumps series, including the popular Tales to Give you Goosebumps, as well as two movies starring Jack Black as RL Stine.Įach tale of terror features a different child or children in a scary situation, often with supernatural characters or monsters to contend with.
