"Stay Out of the Basement" is my #1. The "monster" being a parent always stood out to me.

[FrederickGreer]

The Scarecrow walks at Midnight is my all time favorite Goosebumps book

[octaviovazquez]

You should have gone more in depth with every book! Definently would have watched you reviewing them for longer.

I remember being in elementary school and seeing those cover arts would always creep me out but I loved the art and colors and definitely enjoyed reading them

[ballsssss]

Camp jelly jam definitely had to be my favorite. I read it in 4th grade and that ending was amazing. Might have to re-read it again

[maneshwarsingh]

My favourite has to be "Attack of the Mutant" and "Beast from the east". It's been 10 years since I've read these two still the stories are as fresh in my mind as ever.

I remember getting the very first Goosebumps book Welcome to Dead House from one of those Scholastic book orders at school. The ones that were made out of cheap recycled paper. I read a lot of these books but I don't really remember them. I know I really enjoyed the first several books the most. I loved how the chapters always ended with "OH MY GOD THE MONSTER IS UNDER MY BED HOWLING LIKE A MANIAC!" and the next chapter starts with "Oh it's just my brother playing a trick on me"

I always loved the Horror at Camp Jellyjam, it just had a nice vibe

[RevealinLight]

The Headless Ghost was actually my first Goosebumps book! I read it as a kid at my local library at the time. I then read basically all my library's Goosebumps books, so my mom went on Ebay and got me nearly all of the original books! They came in this big box and I read most of them. Later donated the box but man the memories of these amazing books still stick with me.

I’m such a fan of these books, their covers are so beautiful!!!! It’s nice to just have them because of their aesthetic

[tacotuesday]

Goosebumps books are great, the first one I ever read was stay out of the basement when I was in second grade, and after that i just couldnt stop reading em!

[jessipeculiar]

Werewolf skin has got to be my absolute favorite

[abesapien]

Thanks for making such a comprehensive overview of all the books. Our childhoods are wrapped up in these stories, and it's a joy to go back and read so many of them. Just finished One Day at Horrorland about an hour ago :)

Maybe you can do the same with the series 2000? I'm currently rereading the original 62 since It's been a while since I read them but from the ones I read and remember You Can't Scare Me, I Live In Your Basement, The Werewolf Of Fever Swamp, The Girl Who Cried Monster, Say Cheese And Die and Monster Blood are at the top. I can't rank them yet to be honest I want to read them all first. I also remember loving The Headless Ghost but I can't remember the actual book that much only the twist lol. Vampire Breath was cool I read it recently but I have to be honest my favorite Goosebumps books are those that take place in a normal setting like someone's house or school that way I can see myself in the story since it's a normal setting those are the ones I remember loving particularly as a kid and now as an adult, that's why it didn't connect with me that much but it was a great vampire story. Sorry for the long comment I can't help myself when it comes to Goosebumps :)

[broceollomon]

The Haunted Mask is my favorite. The episode is really good too.
