I used to really enjoy the Goosebumps books when I was a kid. I thought they were terrifying. I read a lot of them, but I definitely missed at least half of them.
About 5 or so years ago I bought a few of them to read on a plane, and boy were they terrible. I'm sure they are still great for kids, but it was like reading an elementary school book for me (which it basically is). I thought they might age better...I sure was wrong.
Still though, the books are a great little find for kids into scary stuff. I used to love them.
