The 11 best Goosebumps monsters Writing at a breakneck pace, R.L. Stine churned out sixty-two now classic Goosebumps. These are his best monsters.
It’s plain to see that 90s kid lit is enjoying a renaissance right now, and the king of the paperbacks back in the day was R. L. Stine. Writing at a breakneck pace, he churned out sixty-two mainline Goosebumps books as well as dozens of spin-offs and other titles.

With the second Jack Black-starring Goosebumps movie set to hit theaters, we pulled out the library card and reacquainted ourselves with the freaks and beasts of the original book series. Here are definitive picks for the eleven…

Is this the creepiest radio show ever? Many of the horror writers—King, Matheson, Bradbury—share the experience of being traumatized by the 25-minute “The Thing on the Fourble Board.”
On Halloween this year I was tooling around Los Angeles listening to the Radio Classics channel on XM (XM 082) and they had an all-day horror marathon going on. They played episodes of Quiet, Please and Lights Out and The Whistler and, of course, Orson Welles’ War of the Worlds broadcast. Anyway, this Quiet, Please episode called “The Thing on the Fourble Board” started and I only got to hear the first 10 minutes before I got to a meeting I was going to and headed inside. When I came back out the episode was over. But the first ten minutes were sufficiently creepy. I kept thinking about it. The…

10 of the most memorable weapons from the movies From Chigurh's creepy farm equipment to one groovy chainsaw arm.
When it comes to many movies, a simple six-shooter just won’t do. Through the years, there have been plenty uniquely destructive weapons to grace the big screen. Below are eleven of the most memorable. Captive Bolt Pistol – No Country For Old Men Watch this video on YouTube The creepy intrigue of Javier Bardem’s character (Anton Chigurh) is amplified a thousand-fold by his choice of weaponry. While most killers might find a captive bolt pistol (typically used to stun cows before slaughter) to be too much of a pain to carry around, Anton found it to be incredibly efficient.
