Bexley native and Ohio State alum R.L. Stine began 'Goosebumps' with the book “Welcome to Dead House” in July 1992 and has been writing them ever since — now there are more than 330 titles.
Stine, whose initials stand for Robert Lawrence, became an avid reader as child, mostly reading comic books. But when he was 9 or 10 years old, a trip to the Bexley Public Library introduced him to the work of science fiction writer Ray Bradbury, he said. Around that time, Stine began writing his own stories.
"I had no idea why it appealed to me so much," he told The Dispatch."My parents didn’t understand it at all. My mom would be outside my door, saying, 'What’s wrong with you? Go outside and play.' The worst advice I ever got, right? 'Stop typing and go play.'After graduating from Ohio State in 1965, Stine moved to New York and bIn the 1980s, he switched over to horror, creating the popular young adult series"Fear Street" in 1989.
Stine's favorite books in the series include"The Haunted Mask," where a girl's Halloween's mask becomes attached to her skin, and all of the books featuring Slappy, according to his website.titled,"Slappy, Beware!" Stine told The Dispatch he believes"Goosebumps" books are popular because of their sense of humor and surprises.
"They know, when they read it, never going to get too scary go too far," he said."I think that’s really important for them. It’s like a roller coaster ride — the twists and turns, a lot of screams and laughing, and then it lets you off safe. Every book has a happy ending, every single one."
