Goosebumps - Franchise

Created by author R. L. Stine, Goosebumps is a multimedia franchise that began as a series of young adult horror novels. The books were eventually adapted and expanded in the 1995 television series, with several video games arriving in the same window. After a long hiatus, the franchise returned to the big screen in 2015, with Jack Black playing the role of R. L. Stine himself.
