About Goosebumps

Goosebumps has sold more than three hundred and fifty million copies since 1992, and at its peak R. L. Stine was producing a new title roughly every two weeks. It introduced horror fiction to a generation of young readers. Scholastic publishes it, and the series was among the most frequently challenged books in American schools during the 1990s, which did nothing to slow its sales.
