Be honest guys, how many Goosebumps books did you own as a kid?

I had about 30.

[Anonymous No.2801488]

[Anonymous No.2801505]

Yeah, yeah. I know. I'm a poor pleb.

2 or 3. My favorite was this one where you controlled the protagonist by making choices; can't remember the name but it took place at a carnival

[Anonymous No.2801545]

Zero.

[Anonymous No.2801550]

I had like 30.. I still have a few for nostalgia. Horrible things, looking back on them.

[Anonymous No.2801557]

I have no idea but it was a shitload.

My favourite was the one where the protagonist gets some eggs from an Easter egg hunt or something, and one of them is an alien egg. He somehow ends up with this crazy person who wants him dead or something, but the alien things swarm around him lovingly instead of crushing him dead.

My memory is so bad, but I wish I could remember the title of it.

I have the entire collection of the fear street. Some other shit in there too, and a couple of those, but they were harder to get here.

>dat nostalgia

Two or Three, I was scared of them because I was told they were horror, once I read one I realised that they were hardly terrifying but by then I was past GB's level of reading

over sixty of the regular books, about twenty of the choose your own adventure series, and probably another twenty from Nightmare on Fear Street. I liked the choose your own adventure ones the most.

I liked how the author created his own universe and would bring things in from previous books to start shit in others.
"what's that? protag has found some mysterious ooze? You better put that shit back man, that shit is known to fuck you up, I've seen it before!"

egg monsters from mars or somethin was the name of the egg one


the scariest one to me was the one where they took an elevator and it went sideways into a world inside the walls of the school, where all these grey kids lived. and if they stayed there too long, they started becoming monochromatic as well...dun dun dun

oh shit I have vague memories of that one, it was pretty creepy.

Thanks anon.

I remember that school one too. The Haunted School. People started going missing or some shit. Had me shitting my pants.

I love how they all have extremely straightforward names.

[skipdivided !!cPnXrwrZ96z No.2801663]

I love how every book follows the same damn structure, you have to love this guy.

My favourite cliche is when something vaguely mentioned at the start of the book saves the main characters at the end.

[Anonymous No.2801664]

Say cheese, and die.

I suppose that is pretty straightforward.

[Anonymous No.2801671]

Literally all of them. Sold them for 2$ each at the age of 16

;_;

[Anonymous No.2801674]

A lot. I'd say almost all of them..

My mum picked a couple of boxes of them up from a boot sale for very cheap.
