So, whether you’re a fan of the books or you’re just intrigued by the series, read on for everything you need to know about the Goosebumps TV series.
What is Goosebumps about?
Season one of the mysterious and suspenseful Goosebumps series follows a group of five high schoolers as they embark on a shadowy and twisted journey to investigate the tragic passing three decades earlier of a teen named Harold Biddle — while also unearthing dark secrets from their parents’ past.
Goosebumps is of course inspired by one of the bestselling book series of all time, with the series drawing on elements from five of the most popular middle-grade books including Say Cheese and Die!, The Haunted Mask, The Cuckoo Clock of Doom, Go Eat Worms! and Night of the Living Dummy.
In season two, titled Goosebumps: The Vanishing, we follow twins Cece and Devin Brewer as they’re sent to spend a summer in Gravesend, Brooklyn, with their divorced dad.
“A threat is stirring, and they quickly realise that dark secrets are among them, triggering a chain of events that unravel a profound mystery. As they delve into the unknown, Cece, Devin and their friends — Alex, CJ and Frankie — find themselves entangled in the chilling tale of four teenagers who mysteriously vanished in 1994,” the synopsis reads.
