It's the season of snow, gifts, and giving, so in honor of that we here at Geesebumps have thrown a white elephant dirty santa bonanza. The gift we stole? R. L. Stine's Beware, The Snowman (Goosebumps #51) a spooky little winter horror tale that is at least an A-Tier Goosebumps adventure and just a nice funny little book in its own right. We hope you find a great joy in it. Also, Danielle has a concussion.

We're back and Geesebumpier than ever for this Thanksgiving as we dig into R.L. Stine's take on gatekeeping in Go Eat Worms! (Goosebumps #21). We are thankful for R.L. for allowing us to wrack our brains over how, possibly, this could be any creepier or unsettling. Enjoy and have a fun and safe holiday!

We gave ourselves goosebumps for your entertainment this day. On today's episode, we actual-read (which is like an actual play, but for books I guess) R.L. Stine's Escape From the Carnival of Horrors (Give Yourself Goosebumps #1). There's page turning, and we explore the dank (420blazeit) recesses of Danielle's mind. It's utterly unhinged.

Happy Halloween everyone! We hope you are having a very fun and safe holiday! On this eve of all hallows where ghosts and such are on the prowl, we here at Geesebumps will regale you with a fun pseudoquiz as to the plots of some of the buckwild things we've read on this show, and trust us, it's weird to hear all about these books after so many years. Enjoy! And be safe!

By request, the Geesebumps gang has taken a weary stab at R.L. Stine's most buckwild vampire tale: Vampire Breath (Goosebumps #49). We don't know what it is you believe a vampire story is supposed to have, but with a little help from our friends Deleuze and Guattari, we're gonna take this book all the way out the the thousand plateaus and leave it there. Also, there's a powerful stink cloud in this one so that's fun.

The reports of our demise were greatly overstated. We're back for I guess a season two as we dig into one of the lost Goosebumps reprints, R.L. Stine's Legend of the Lost Legend (Goosebumps #47). Far and away one of the most troubling literary experiences we've ever dealt with. It's the worst version of Baudrillard's Simulacra, AND WE DIDN'T EVEN MENTION THAT IN THE EPISODE. Enjoy!

Slappy's back, pardners! It's R.L. Stine's Night of the Living Dummy II (Goosebumps #31). It's almost an amazing psychological horror character study about a potentially millennial ventriloquist, but turns out to be a Goosebumps book. Also, this episode is extra-sized because it's been a full year! Enjoy friends!

We intended to do a new Fear Street book today but we didn't anticipate it was 500 pages or whatever so we instead did R.L. Stine's The Scarecrow Walks at Midnight (Goosebumps #20). Also, we've been doing this for about a year now, and our attitude on Goosebumps has...changed.

Spoilers: We talk about Space Jam: A New Legacy.
Today we are discussing the second of 4 Monster Blood books in the main Goosebumps Series: Monster Blood 2 (or Monster Blood II) by R.L. Stine (Goosebumps #18). After this book we concluded that most people like the idea of Goosebumps more than anything else. Also, like most sequels, we rehash all of our basic points from the first one in a new fun way. Enjoy!
Our next episode will come out on August 18th and we'll be talking about R.L. Stine's Return to Fear Street 1: You May Now Kill the Bride

Netflix produced a trilogy of films based on the Fear Street saga by R.L. Stine, and these films have a really elaborate name. Today, we are discussing Parts one, two, and three of the Fear Street saga overall, with more focus paid to the last like half-hour of 1666 because it's best. Spoilers ahoy!
Our next episode will come out on July 28th!
