Twenty years ago a TV show was made called Goosebumps. Fast forward now and there is now a movie of this coming out this year starring Jack Black as R.L Sline so what better way to do but to review the TV series of Goosebumps. As a kid I used to watch this every day on TV. Every episode(maybe there might have been a few I wasn't afraid of)was creepy and spooky. Created by R.L Sline the show is basically based on all the books he wrote and they are intertwined as short stories for teenagers that are involved in spooky situations,like mummy's vampires,witches,you name it and it was in this show. Two episodes I remember to this day are The Haunted Mask and The Night Of The Living Dummy which both scared me as a kid(actually I seen The Haunted Mask the other day and it scared the crap out of me).

But The Night Of The Living Dummy episode was by far the creepiest I have ever came across as I have seen that episode so many times as a child and to this day it creeps me out. Slappy I remembered had red hair and he had this creepy face(like Chucky that serial doll killer from that horror film Seed Of Chucky). The Haunted Mask episode was also creepy as a young girl wanted to buy this really scary mask unaware that when she puts it on it would stick to her face and would be impossible to remove it,unless she can love herself more.

Overall if you are a die hard fan of horror films than this show is just for you,but if you hate watching stuff that scare the living daylights out of you than stay away from it.

Even the music was creepy like what you hear Danny Elfman play.
