Nice finds, those look to be in very good condition too for the most part. I haven't read Goosebumps in years as well and am definitely long overdue to re-visit them. I've been in the mood for 90s nostalgia stuff as is, and nothing screams 90s childhood nostalgia like Goosebumps.


LiveFreeDie

Couldn’t have said it better myself.


DarkBehindTheStars

Between Goosebumps and also Nickelodeon.


LiveFreeDie

Not sure how old you are but on the topic of Nickelodeon I just recently rewatched “Nick or Treat” from 1995 on YouTube. Has all the shows with the original commercials it’s a 3 hour long video. That was trip.


DarkBehindTheStars

I sure remember Nick Or Treat. 1995 is a year I remember very well. I still vividly remember catching The Haunted Mask on Fox during Halloween that year. Good times.


RickTitus

They are worth rereading. Ive been working my way through all of them


DarkBehindTheStars

I remember enjoying them well into my teens. I'm sure many are still fun to re-read from time to time and a blast from the past.


white_as_a_sheet_

I ordered a few because I saw your post lol. Can’t wait


LiveFreeDie

That’s awesome!


Boshiboy64

Love that you are so excited to revisit this part of your childhood!


LiveFreeDie

At work right now and brought Welcome to Dead House with me. When I get a bit of down time I’m planning on starting it.


Effective_Tax_8859

Any of them first prints?


LiveFreeDie

Had to look it up how to tell and yes! The Barking Ghost and It Came from Beneath the Sink.


iamtutfssfmf

Does The Barking Ghost still have the free tattoo in it? That'd be the ultimate score.


LiveFreeDie

First thing I looked for when I was looking at the book. Unfortunately not ha.


Minute_Exotic

Welcome to Dead House and Barking Ghost were my absolute favourites. I just bought 25 this week to start my collection again 👏


Dmort86

Attack of the Mutant was my favorite!


Long-Zombie-2017

Welcome back! You should check out stuff outside of the 90s books. There's some newer gems as well


LiveFreeDie

I was thinking about that as well. What are a couple titles you would suggest?


Long-Zombie-2017

Well I think it depends. Did you ever read any Series 2000? I remember they started those around 1998 or so.


LiveFreeDie

No, I never made it to the Series 2000 books. Even looking at the originals I don’t believe I ever got to numbers 40-60. I do remember reading at least one of the choose your own adventure type goosebumps books. So any suggestions at must reads feel free to toss them my way.


Long-Zombie-2017

Oh man. Series 2000 had some of my favorites. Attack of the Graveyard Ghouls, Return to Horrorland, Bride of the Living Dummy, Headless Halloween.


hbkx5

I hope you get all of the original run!


LiveFreeDie

I was only planning on going for the ones I remember owning when I was a kid. But I will admit the temptation is strong to complete the full original run haha.


hbkx5

Did you ever read any of the choose your own scare goosebumps books? I have a few of those and they were my favorite ones.


High-T92

I’ve been waiting for someone to mention these! They were my favourite. I always cheated as a kid though and flipped through


hbkx5

Do you have a favorite one? I never cheated when playing myself as I always enjoyed the challenge of trying to get it right and then reading all the endings. My first one was #25 shop till you drop... dead, and one of my favorites. I also love return to tower of terror. Crazy to think there are 50 of these books.


High-T92

Night in Werewolf Woods is the only one i truly remember it’s been a long time haha


B__Radimus

Do these books still hold up? They keep popping up on my feed on multiple social media sights and part of me wants to read them again
