Listen "Goosebumps by R.L. Stine"
Episode Synopsis
Nostalgia 3 - Serena’s Recommendation
Are you scared of things that go bump in the night? What about living dummies or giant man eating blobs? It's time to pay homage to R.L. Stine, "the Stephen King of children's literature", and hopefully he made plenty of loofa doing it. ;)
Whether these delighted you (like Rachel) or terrified you (like Serena) as a child, it's time to give yourself goosebumps.
Notes: Serena was wrong. There was a first Night of the Living Dummy, as discovered later on in the podcast.
There were hundreds of Goosebumps books originally, but not all were reprinted more recently.
