Goosebumps Favorite Episodes:


This Show has been broadcast here in 1998 that is why i mostly watched re-runs of the earlier episodes, and RL Stine is the modern day Stephen King, and Goosebumps was dubbed as the Twilight Zone made for the Kids.

[A Loyal NJ Fan]

[wTFaMonkey]

WOWOOWOWW

:cheers: :cheers:

those ole goosebumps days

thanks for reminding me OP :cheers:

[notorious ai3]

are you afraid of the dark for sure. but in all fairness, goosebumps books were a lot better than the shows.

[VCMVP1551]

I remember some of thse shows. I use to watch them when I was younger.

[Noob Saibot]

Are You Afraid Of The Dark on TV

Goosebumps for reading

[ihatetimthomas]

LoL...i used to love Are you afraid of the dark! watched it every friday....even the intro was creepy. They had some episodes that freaked me out ( i was much younger) and had some crazy twists.

Goosebumps really sucked as a show but i used to read the books. I liked them but the show was just too cheesy

[baseketball4life]

good dig up lbj i used to love that show and i was always mad scared

[Lebron23]

good dig up lbj i used to love that show and i was always mad scared


The Intro of the original Are you Afraid of the Dark send me chills, and when i was a kid i always want to be a part of the Midnight Society. :roll:

[starface]

had to love cappin off a good SNICK with Are U Afraid of the Dark.

[baseketball4life]

The Intro of the original Are you Afraid of the Dark send me chills, and when i was a kid i always want to be a part of the Midnight Society. :roll:
lmao yea

i remember the intro... something over a fire right?

[qrich]

Oh god, man nothing was better then Are You Afraid Of The Dark....man, now I'm going to try to find some dvd's or something and watch that show.

The Goosebumps books were the **** though

[wTFaMonkey]

GOOSEBUMPS BOOKS!!!!

[wTFaMonkey]

LOL

OP your about to make me go find my old goosebumps books lol

:cheers: :cheers:

[kentatm]

Are You Afraid Of The Dark all the way.

the one where the girl has the glasses that lets her see the weird black shaped people freaked my sh!t when I was a kid.

[Richie2k6]

This brings back memories. I loved them both. My favorite Goosebumps one was the living dummy thing.

[jbot]

never watched the shows much but my oldest son collects goosebumps books though. i'll go w/ that one then.

[Frank Foley]

Snick was a great programming block. Ren & Stimpy followed by AYAOTD.

[markymark]

they were both lame for me since i read a stephen king book when i was 10 :cry:

[bomber]

Goosebumps was lame.

One episode of AYAOFD was effing scary. Some freakishly pale faceless creature was in one episode. Just a face no eyes or features. Scary stuff.

[Hawker]

The episode of AYAOFD with the quiksilver guy and the spoon and the girl was using a metal spoon instead of a silver spoon. That one freaked me out the worse.

Man, I miss nickelodeon so much.

Good topic. I never got into the goosebumps books partly b/c I was too busy reading hardy boys and the beverly cleary books. Saw a couple of the episodes and the only one that sticks in my mind is the one where a girl buys a mask and wears it and stays on her face for life.

[Day La Ghetto]

They were both good. I watched Goosebumps more till I got nickeloden. They used to hype up new episodes of goosebumps so much they'd put new episodes on on friday nights, then when show started to get old they put them back on sat mornings. What happened to cartoons just being on sat mornings, like new episodes, miss the 90s.

[catzhernandez]

How did I miss this thread??? Best thread of the year so far.

I'm not sure how I can pick one over the other here. Theyre' both so similar, yet entirely different. I guess I would have to pick Are You Afraid.. just because it isn't so "kiddy", I guess you could say, doesn't always wrap up all nice and neat at the end of every episode. It was creepier. But I actually have fonder memories of Goosbumps. I'm torn! I liked the Goosbumps episode where the family goes to like a theme park or something, and there's a bunch of monsters there, they kidnap them, etc. Good stuff, very creepy.

Also, did anyone else really enjoy the choose your own destiny Goosbump books?

[catzhernandez]

SNICK FTW!!!

Clarissa Explains It All, Pete and Pete, Ren and Stimpy, Are You Afraid... OMG, I miss my childhood. Rocko's modern life, Aaaah! Real Monsters, I could list 25 classics.

[hito da god]

where goosebumps shone wasn't in its TV shows, it was in the books

my nose was dug into those books all throughout elementary school :bowdown: the show sucked though

goosebumps the books > are you afraid of the dark as a show

I'd haver to agree. I loved those goosebumps books. Used to get excited everytime a new one came out. Yea the show was totally whack. But AYAOTD was a great show growing up. Snick at night....good shyt on friday

[Lebron23]

They need to bring back this Classic Shows, and I kinda miss being a kid in the 1990's.

[picc84]

Damn, Are you Afraid was the ****. That mother****in clown in the attic in the credits was freaky as hell.

[kwajo]

Gotta go with Are You Afraid of the Dark, one of the best Canadian-produced TV series of all time (after Danger Bay of course).

[Richie2k6]

Goosebumps had some scary ass episodes. 3 I remember are the one on Halloween where the kid puts on the mask and it gets stuck on his head or something and starts to take him over? Another is the lawn gnomes that come to life. Another, the scariest of them all, was the dummies that came to life.

I watched AYAOTD as well but I really can't remember many episodes from it. It had a freaky opening though.

Night of the Living Dummies: http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_7HsKG798A

Gonna watch that right now.. still probably gonna freak me out to this day.

[Killer_Instinct]

AYAOTD was pure greatness. I was young when it used to come on, around 5or 6, maybe younger. The intro always messed with me, especially the rocking chair and the clown. Goosebumps was good, also, but AYAOTD was on another level. I really dig the episode with the killer clown who follows the boy home from the circus, and the comic book guy who got out of the book. AYAOTD is an all time fav of mine.

Edit; Intro http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jitg-3xbmKU

Completly forgot about the laughing kids. Nick has really regressed in content. This show would never come on todays Nick.

[Richie2k6]

and the comic book guy who got out of the book
Oh yeah I remember that. I think it was more cool thank scary.

[Killer_Instinct]

Oh yeah I remember that. I think it was more cool thank scary.


Yeah, I've looked everywhere for that episode. Watched it a few months back. I think YouTube may have removed it(again), but it's one of the best episodes AYAOTD had.

[ForceOfNature]

Are You Afraid of the Dark is coming to The N network for a week from October 25th to the 31st. See here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_programs_broadcast_by_The_N#Repeats_of_Nic kelodeon_series

[kentatm]

nm.

maybe i should read a thread to see if i have already said the same thing in it.

:oldlol:

[3.2.1.]

I have never seen Are You Afraid Of The Dark so Goosebumps FTW.


The Goosebumps books were great and they always have something very interesting or scary at the end of every chapter. I remember in elementary I couldn't put those books down. R.L. Stine is a genius. The t.v. shows are also great and I'd watch it if they played it often. I love the t.v. show.:bowdown:

["Jesus"]

I remember being scared of the opening sequence of Are You Afraid Of the Dark.
Goosebump books > Goosebump show

EDIT: just watched the opening again, scared ****less HAHA

[RomeoLuvCasanova]

I'm pretty sure I had every single Goosebumps book.

[ukballer]

Are You Afraid Of The Dark on TV

Goosebumps for reading

Dude right here sums it up perfectly for me.

Though while most Goosebumps episodes weren't that frightening considering it was on at the time kids would be getting home from school (well here in England anyway), some of them were a bit like 'damn, that's gonna give the scared kids some nightmares for weeks!'.

[Lebron23]

Supergirl (Laura Vandervoort) was one of the Guest Star on AYAOD. Damned, She was hot back then, and still gorgeous as Superman's Cousin in Smallville.

These stories were the bomb in junior high...

[catzhernandez]

Space Cases was another really good but forgotten show.
You FTW, I thought I was the only one who remembered that show.

It had the black power ranger "Zack" in it, of course that wasn't his name in it... He also has some mini dreads... Anyone ever notice how he was missing part of his left ring finger?

[mateo31]

Eerie Indiana is also a great show in the mid 1990's.

[Styles p]

are you afraid of the dark all day. and dead mans float was my favorite episode.

[Lebron23]

Thank God Steve Chen, Chad Hurley and Jawed Karim invented youtube. I am gonna watch some episodes tonight.

[Lebron23]

Gonna watch some episodes again.

[ROCSteady]

AYAOTD no question.


I remember how epic it was when the two parter 'The Tale of Cutter's Treasure' debuted on a particular Saturday Night.


That one is the most memorable for me so gets my nod as favorite but there were tons of good ones

[Iverson3]

I love them both
