No exaggeration, the worst show I have seen in my life.

This is probably the only show/movie I have ever seen that I would give a straight-up 0/10. The acting is awful, it's not remotely scary, the special effects are barely better than the 90s show, and to top it all off they added a sprinkle of wokeness into the mix. I genuinely can't imagine thinking this show is good. And it had so much potential too. If you don't quite understand, it took the original Goosebumps (which was already awful) and removed the few good things about it, then added even worse things to the show. If you don't believe that it's woke, it literally feels like they wrote the entire show and then remembered they had to add a gay character, so they just inserted him in. Aside from being woke, They also made it extremely Gen Z and cringe. You can literally hear the top ten cringiest lines ever just by watching this. Also, they tried to gear it towards teens by adding sexual content and jokes, but it isn't scary at all. In conclusion, it is trash, boring, woke, not scary, and low quality. Even the original goosebumps was better. This show isn't even so bad it's funny, it's worse than that. 0/10

Honestly really surprised by the hate surrounding this show, I enjoyed it though there were some cringy parts but I liked it. I saw a parent on here who showed their kids Marvel but said this was too much, which isn’t right at all. If your kids have seen Marvel they can watch this. There’s some sexual references so I wouldn’t recommend showing it to a whole CHILD though as I said if your child has seen Marvel it’s not worse. The special effects aren’t horrible. I was surprised that this is a disney show considering there’s some grossness revolving when a character breaks his arm. But overall this is a good show, and I recommend it!

sometimes you have to give yourself goosebumps

A great horror series based off R. L Stine's classic books is perfect for Halloween.

Great show - not scary at all

It was really good, entertaining story line, like able characters, unpredictable plot, nothing inappropriate for kids, and not very scary for little kids.

Good if you don’t like super scary things

I think it’s a good show. I liked watching it because I remember the old goosebumps movies and tv shows, so I got to kinda remember those that I used to watch. This was overall a good show, it was not very scary to me, but to kids younger than 9 it may scare them a little. The show did get a little boring after the first few episodes, but overall I liked it. I only recommend this if you don’t like super scary things. If you like more scary things to watch, you should definitely watch some horror movies instead.
