#CrossoverInsider : New Releases give you Goosebumps, Videogaming News + WIN!
Throughout the 1990’s and into the early 2000’s, RL Stine’s book series “Goosebumps” was a hot commodity among teens and young adults. It was not uncommon to see bookshelves in kids rooms lined with all of the latest and hottest Goosebumps books. Although the popularity of the book series had tapered off somewhat, it was announced in 2014 that a full length big screen movie adaptation was in the works. In 2015, the Goosebumps movie was released thus introducing a whole new generation to RL Stine’s creepy books. Fans responded by flocking to cinemas resulting in a near 80 million dollar theatrical run.
