…Goosebumps weren’t part of Point Horror, were they…?..I’ve looked at some of the titles and some do feel a bit familiar but I don’t think that I read any…maybe the boys did…Goosebumps, though…I loved those books/stories…:love:…

My first thought was Goosebumps too, these look like some cheap knock off

They were before goosebumps and generally a lot more gruesome. :fist:

But the guy that wrote Goosebumps also wrote books for Point Horror.

I’m trying to think of one of the most recognisable covers from the books someone may recognise.
