Give Yourself Goosebumps: Invaders From the Big Screen
The original Say Cheese and Die is my favorite Goosebumps cover art.
I might would pick some of these up if they had the original guy do the cover art. As the new Goosebumps cover art is just terrible.
That's a pretty good list, looks identical to mine except for Revenge of the Living Dummy. I have that one a little higher. Doesn't mean I like it more better. lol
Nice list
Laymon had a great imagination, read all his books, he and Dean Koontz were good friends,
Food for thought. So many books and so little time. Happy reading.
Dude you are a reading machine!! I like how you read a little of every series and genre. You have definitely inspired me to pick up Coraline asap!! I definitely enjoyed shark night more than you lol, I couldn’t stand slime doesn’t pay haha!
@@ShadysideLibrary Coraline is sooo good, I'm still trying to wrap my head around it. Would love to hear your thoughts on it!
Time Warp Trio is GOATed lol
Good video but main takeaway for me is that you are not a fan of Dean koontz 😂 some proper classics got slammed there!
Man so many books, I feel overwhelmed that I took a break on reading for a while. Definetly will add more of these to the list to catch up. For now, I am trying to go along with your read through of A Series of Unfortunate Events. Read the first one, It was good, unexpectedly messed up. lol.
yayayayay i love listening to these when Im drawing!!
Fear Street/ Point Horror books are always a good reset when in a reading slump. Always a fun time, just books you can turn your brain off and have a fun time. I enjoyed the series of unfortunate events books, but by the 5th book, they were so repetitive to me and got alittle bored of them. I only need the last book. I really liked the first 4. Coraline is one book I'm looking forward to reading just need to buy a copy one of these days.
Glad you liked the San Souci book! I really think he’s the most underrated children’s horror author, I’ve loved his stuff for ages. What was your favorite story? “Mountain Childers” still scares the shit out of me as a grown man
Mountain Childers was indeed very creepy! I really enjoyed The Quilt, though there were so many good ones it's hard to pick a favorite. The only ones I didn't care for as much were Laughter and Best Friends. The rest were pretty solid.
Good discussion
Hey, you should check out the Dare to Be Scared series by the same author. They’re sort of the precursor to Haunted Houses. There’s 4 in all, I think. Short stories, 13 stories per book, and a lot of them are legitimately freaky (even for an adult!)
I've read one of them and it was great! (Will cover it in my July Wrap-up soon!)
I respect this 👍 I’d say the 2nd movie is my favorite but overall nice ranking
Fun read. Props on collecting variant covers.
I read the first chapter of Intensity and I'm so hooked. I like the writing style too.
Thanks for the lukewarm review. I've always seen this on shelves as a kid and never did pick it up. Although curious about many of the Spinetinglers, I only read 2 or 3 stinkers that didn't encourage any more reads in M T Coffin's series.
I loved these books, used to pick them up at the dollar store as a kid.
Awesome!! I'm actually getting the vampire one so I can dx. I'm excited. Thanks. Now I'm really looking forward to it.
U think the language and words here uses in this book is the best too I really loved the language. I wish there was even more to the story I wish he went back to Oregon at the end though.
I think both parts together are important others say it should be 2 books I don't think so I think by it being both together makes it the best book of his so far of I compared lighting ro just the first part of twilight eyes it might not be better but giving that more detail to the story
Slim is now my favorite koontz characters
This book was so good I have a book hangover still a week later it made me cry when it was over. This and lighting are the best I read so far
MY FAVORITE INE IS REVENGE OF THE LAWN GNOMES
You said "The Bones"! it should be called "Them Bones!" But I guess that is overused? On no, not The Bog..anything but that. We beg of you! jk. This vid showed up on my recommendation. "Hell Hound"..a postal carrier's worst nightmare. Hitting the LIKE to show support. I'd have to check out your other reviews, when I get a chance.
From what I remember, this was the best from the second half of the horrorland series for sure. I'd say i liked it more than the original A Night in Terror Tower book.
Sounds cool. Thanks for the refresher on one I have zero memory of from the horrorland series.
Where would you rank these in all of the modern GBs? Can't wait to read these
There was a Koontz novel I read several years ago that the central theme was either an alien invasion or alien saviors - truly can't remember which way it went. Could anyone tell me if it's possibly 'strangers'? If not, perhaps point me in the right direction? All ik is I devoured it and would very much like to do so again!
Strangers is about Aliens, kinda...
I honestly really thought that this series deserved a 3rd installment..
Have you ever read i have no mouth but i must scream or all tommorows?
@@sealord77 I have not
"Demon Seed"(based on the original 1973 novel, and later, the 1997 version) book that the movie is based on, is scary! I also like "The Funhouse". Read the book first, chilling backstory. Then watch the movie of the same title. Check out the body in the bottle. Creepy!
Intensity was so intense I had to stop reading it. It takes some damn nerves!
Laymon - forever in our hearts❤
This is my favorite, “Goosebumps: Horrorland,” book.
What SK book are you interested in reading next?
@@glendyc22 Not sure, don't really have any lined up at the moment. I do have his nonfiction books I would like to read at some point though.
Nightmares and Dreamscapes is my least favorite of his collections, can't believe I manged to even finish it, such a chore! The Dark Half is one of my favorite King novels, probably because how it reminded me of Jekyll and Hyde as I love any story adjacent to that! Just After Sunset and Skeleton Crew both are nostalgic for some reason to me even I just only read them months ago, most of them are bad stories but when there's good ones, they stand out! Night Shift is the best collection from him, just nonstop bangers, I think I only dislike one story in that book Misery to me is alright, mostly the graphic scenes standout, would want to reread it someday. and The Shining is my favorite novel from your list of rankings. cliche, I know. lol My favorite King novels is the Bill Hodges trilogy and The Outsider. I am more of a modern constant reader.
I’m so glad I’m not the only one that thinks Pet Sematary is super weak stuff lol. I’ve heard people rave about that book since I read it in 2010, and I still don’t like it that much, after re-reading it, a few years back.
@@michaelkikle3018 it's been a very long time since I've read it (I was in my teens) so tbh I don't remember it super well but I remember thinking it was just kind of okay. Even in my younger years I could never really get into King and never understood what the hype was about lol
@@Monsterblood I think it’s just his reputation, man. You know how normies latch onto things and make them a bigger celebration than they should be lol. That’s what I suspect, anyway.
You had a great reading month. I heard the sequel to Cujo in You Like It Darker is pretty good and that's the only reason why I'm going to get a copy of this book lol. The Beverly Cleary books are so much fun and nostalgic. Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio is a pretty good movie I recommend if you haven't seen it.
Dude, excellent video, first off. Secondly, I have to agree about what you said about Stephen King. He was one of the first adult horror authors I ever read, and I loved his work, as a teen. Right now, I’m trying to read Salem’s Lot for the first time, and I’m nearly 250 pages in. It’s so dull, to me lol. I love Bag of Bones and Duma Key, but stuff like this and The Shining are shockingly overrated, and I’m getting to a point that I’m ready to drop reading anything new from the guy lol. I’ve been in a huge reading slump since I finished my Goosebumps books, and I hoped stuff like Salem’s Lot could get me back into it, but I’ve been slogging through it for almost six or eight months, now lol. Dude needed an editor his entire career-not just a copy editor. God bless!
@@strangemichaelhorror I loved Salem's Lot! Lol. And Duma Key is probably my least favorite S. King book for the reasons you mentioned. It's like 750 pages and overwritten as hell. Surprised that it's one of your favorites haha
@@Monsterblood nice, man, so you’d say Salem’s Lot gets better, then? I’ll stick through it, then hahah. I hope it starts picking-up more, soon. If I get one more chapter about the history of the town, I’m going to cry 😂 Even though I love Duma, I agree 1000% that it’s longer than it needs to be, and a little slow hahah. There’s something about that period of King’s work that I seem to love, and I can’t place my finger on exactly what it is. Dude just nails that somber feeling, in those, but I don’t know how much more meandering in his books I can take lol. I think you’re onto something, in the video, when you mentioned that forcing yourself to finish a book is what might put you in a such a severe slump, and I think that’s what’s happened to me
Awesome review 👍
are you going to do a ranking when you are done with the serious of unfortunate events series
@@user-jo4vg3jk2z I might!
I bet that original Pinnochio story has more explicit content than the word asshole in the original movie which really surprised me. lol Does the original novel classified even as a horror novel? Seems like what Slappy's Nightmare and Slappy Beware wished to be. lols. I am sure gonna check that out someday!
@@ZoeyDeLeonVA It's great, I recommend it! It's super wacky and fun but does have some pretty dark and violent stuff in it
Good discussion
Richard Laymon books work better in audiobook form. Somehow the narrators infuse the characters of his books with more character then Laymon ever managed. Strange how that works.
Laymon rocks. Better than King in my opinion.
My local library has at least like over 25 goosebumps books [including horrorland] and I wish they had the OG covers but unfortunately they have the new covers and its not like I don’t like the new covers but us Goosebumps fans love the OG covers more than the new covers
