The Hulu and Disney+ adaptation of the R.L. Stine books releases this Friday the 13th.
Readers beware, you’re in for a new take on Goosebumps scares. The popular R.L. Stine gateway horror books are now an anthology series which interweaves familiar monsters and spooky lore into a new terrifying tale, with a new group of teens at its center. Classics like The Haunted Mask and Say Cheese and Die! become interconnected threads that tie into the mystery of the Biddle house over one Halloween night—and the mysterious puppet figure possibly pulling the strings.
What was important for you to honor about his lore, but also make it new? Welch: He is the most iconic character in the entire canon. So it was important to us not to deviate too far, but also to update it. We went through a lot of different models and imaginings of what our version could look like, and we wanted it to be properly scary but feel contemporary and new. Shetty: I think Slappy in particular is memorable and specifically scary because he’s a ventriloquist doll.
