Goosebumps Film: 10 Things You Need To Know

10. It's Going To Be More Comedy Than Horror

Wikipedia states the plot as the following: 'After moving into a small town, a teenage boy named Zach Cooper (Dylan Minnette) meets Hannah (Odeya Rush), his new neighbour. Hannah's father, R. L. Stine (Jack Black), who writes the Goosebumps stories, keeps all the ghosts and monsters in the series locked up in his books. When Zach unintentionally releases the ghouls and the monsters from the storybooks, Zach, Hannah, and Stine team up in order to put the monsters back where they came from, before it's too late'. It's looking to be more of a comedy horror fantasy, but that doesn't make fans any less excited. Because Goosebumps was always a little silly, wasn't it? It sound typical of a Goosebumps plot, just far more intense because more than one monster is going to have to be kept at bay. The whole 'boy moves to new town and discovers something terrible' is so typical of a Goosebumps story that it's actually incredibly pleasing.
