This isn’t entirely your Goosebumps from the 90's either, or maybe it sort of is as the new mystery connects a group of kids together who experience familiar horrors from the books thanks to their family history. While the trailer below is seemingly tonally different from the goopy green camp of the original Fox Kids show there’s a few touchstones like the Haunted Mask and Slappy that stand out as returning faves.

The second Justin Long appears, I couldn’t help but think, ‘Oh, he’s not long for this world’ as we know what tends to happen to the actor in horror movies (spoiler alert: it’s never good things). The cast is rounded out by a new crew of teens who get to live Goosebumps greatest hits featuring Zack Morris (EastEnders), Isa Briones (Star Trek: Picard), Miles McKenna (Guilty Party), Ana Yi Puig (Gossip Girl) and Will Price (The Equalizer). Nicholas Stoller (The Muppets) and Rob Letterman (Pokémon Detective Pikachu) developed the series and are executive producers.
