R.L. Stine's Stories Come to Spooky Life in 'Goosebumps' Trailer
Warning: You're about to get some "Goosebumps."
Sony released the first trailer for the film adaptation of R.L. Stine's immensely popular kids' horror book series. Jack Black plays the author, who lives a rather reclusive life with his teen daughter Hannah (Odeya Rush). But things get shaken up when Zach (Dylan Minnette) moves in next door. One day, he opens one of Stine's manuscripts — and unleashes the monsters contained inside! Stine, Hannah, and Zack have to team up to contain them before they rampage all over the town.
The trailer makes the movie look like good, scary-but-not-too-terrifying fun. A number of creatures pop up, from the Abominable Snowman to a werewolf to creepy garden gnomes. And since the movie has a more comedic tone, there are plenty of one-liners and wacky hijinks.
"Goosebumps" opens in October 16 — just in time for Halloween.
