Official film synopsis revealed for Goosebumps film adaptation.


Many fans wondered how the classic horror childrens' books Goosebumps, written by R.L. Stine, would be turned into a movie when the film adaptation was first announced. There are so many great stories fans wondered which one they would turn into a film. Or perhaps they would turn the film idea into a franchise. 

Well it turns out that they aren't turning one particular book into a film after all. The storyline that they have chosen to create is very meta and may surprise fans.

Official synopsis:
"In Goosebumps, upset about moving from a big city to a small town, teenager Zach Cooper (Dylan Minnette) finds a silver lining when he meets the beautiful girl, Hannah (Odeya Rush), living right next door. But every silver lining has a cloud, and Zach’s comes when he learns that Hannah has a mysterious dad who is revealed to be R. L. Stine (Jack Black), the author of the bestselling Goosebumps series. It turns out that there is a reason why Stine is so strange… he is a prisoner of his own imagination – the monsters that his books made famous are real, and Stine protects his readers by keeping them locked up in their books. When Zach unintentionally unleashes the monsters from their manuscripts and they begin to terrorize the town, it’s suddenly up to Stine, Zach, and Hannah to get all of them back in the books where they belong."
Do you think this kind of story can be a success? Which monsters from the Goosebumps books do you think will make an appearance in the film? Which are you hoping will make it?

Goosebumps will hit theaters on March 23, 2016.
