10 Scariest Goosebumps Books I'm Still Thinking About As An Adult

One Day at Horrorland is a terrifying road trip into a twisted amusement park with sinister motivations lurking beneath the costume. The Beast from the East puts a dark twist on a children's game of tag, evoking the intense trials and traps of adult horror movies. Revenge of the Lawn Gnomes turns silly into sadistic, as lovable lawn decorations transform into gaslighting villains with murderous intent.
The Goosebumps books were one of the defining series of my childhood, and many of the chilling tales have stuck in my mind well into my adult life. Created by the legendary author R.L. Stine, the Goosebumps series are largely responsible for my own obsession with horror, introducing the joy of scary stories to my young, malleable brain. Whenever I found myself in the Scholastic book fair with a few dollars to my name, I'd make a beeline for the dripping green font of the Goosebumps series.
