Goosebumps

These surely count as 'retro' at this stage. These books were the first books I properly got into. I had tens of them. All were just so exciting! Going through the drawers under my bed I stumbled across a lot of them and have read a huge chunk of one already. Aww memories! The Horror of Camp Jellyjam, Night of the Living Dummy, You Can't Scare Me, The Scarecrow Walks at Midnight, The Blob that Ate Everyone.

Looking at the wikipedia.org site of the list of Goosebumps books, I haven't read many at all http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Goosebumps_books

Give yourself Goosebumps were sweet as well. Escape from the Carnival of Horrors stands out as the best one for me! Genius idea!

Wow, Escape From The Carnival Of Horrors. I used to love that book. You'd do it once, then you'd redo it several times to see where you ended up. Brilliant!

I used to love all those 'Goosebumps' and 'Point Horror' books. I read so much more back before the internet came along and monopolised all my time.

Hey peeps. Just collecting on the old Goosebumps books and Spine-Chiller Collection Magazines. I have a few Goosebumps books already and I'm looking to get the entire collection complete. There's 62 in total. Not too sure about the Spine-Chiller magazines but I had up to 50 of them when I was younger until they were stolen.

If anybody knows where to purchase these books or magazines it would be very helpful. I checked Amazon.co.uk and Ebay and the goosebumps books seem pretty easy to find but the Spine-Chiller mags don't exist for some reason. Well there's people selling individual issues but no collection of them so it's slightly bothersome. I still have most of the pop up cards that came with the magazines but not the magazines themselves as they were stolen.

Any comments or help would be fantastic, thanks and have a nice day

"Are You Afraid Of The Dark" used to be a good one too. the episodes were better than goosebumps if remember correctly and a lot more creepier from a kids point of view, but the goosebumps books were far better

Loved those books, 'Are You Afraid of the Dark' was a good TV show, but preferred reading the Goosebumps books. Was Eerie Indiana a show on the Den around then too, that was a little bit scary too iirc, or am I getting mixed up?

Read a couple of the books, but it was the tv show I followed mostly. 'Are You Afraid Of The Dark?' was another show I liked.

Recently started watching "Goosebumps" and "Are you Afraid of the Dark?" again on the internet - now those were proper teenager shows. Some of "Are you Afraid of the Dark" were kinda frightening.

The night of the living dummy books, i think it was a triology, was class. As was the one where the girl couldnt take off that halloween mask. Never caught much of the tv series but the books were stocked in my local library
