In the whimsical 2015 film Goosebumps, directed by Rob Letterman, adventure and comedy collide when teenager Zach Cooper relocates to a quaint small town. His mundane life takes a thrilling turn when he befriends his reclusive neighbor, Hannah, who happens to be the daughter of the famous horror author R.L. Stine, known for his spine-tingling Goosebumps series. As Zach's curiosity leads him to stumble upon Stine's locked manuscripts, chaos ensues when he inadvertently releases a horde of nightmarish creatures into the real world. Suddenly, the town is under siege by the very monsters that once haunted the pages of Stine’s books, and it falls to Zach, Hannah, and the enigmatic author himself to restore order before it's too late.
