Over the past three decades, R.L. Stine has written more than 230 books in the kids’ horror book series Goosebumps. The books inspired a TV series in the ’90s and two movies in 2015 and 2018, and now it is set to make its small-screen return with a new live-action series.
This upcoming series is a collaboration between Scholastic Entertainment, Sony Pictures Television, and Neal H. Moritz, who produced the movies Goosebumps and Goosebumps 2.
“I loved making the Goosebumps movies and can’t wait to bring even more of R. L. Stine’s incredible stories to life through a high-end television series that speaks to both adults and kids alike,” Moritz told Deadline.
Scholastic Entertainment President and Chief Strategy Officer Iole Lucchese will serve as executive producer, alongside Moritz, Caitlin Friedman, and Pavun Shetty. There are very few details at this point, in terms of which Goosebumps stories the show will feature or if the new series will tie in with any previous Goosebumps adaptations.
Currently, Scholastic has a Goosebumps site with games, videos, links to buy the Goosebumps books, and more.
