EXCLUSIVE: Sony Pictures is negotiating with Rob Letterman to helm Goosebumps, the feature film based on the R.L. Stine young-adult fright book series. Letterman certainly seems qualified for rustling up scares for a family audience; his directing credits that include Monsters Vs Aliens, Shark Tale and Gulliver’s Travels, and his scripts include The Disappeared for Jason Bateman’s Aggregrate banner, and Paranormalists for Brian Grazer.

Goosebumps will be produced by Neal H. Moritz, and Sony Pictures is making the film with Scholastic Entertainment.

I think there are 63 of those books just in the main series, and they are very popular.
That would be the franchise to end all franchises!

Yup - between all the kids I think we have 2 plastic storage tubs full of just Goosebumps books. Could cut thag by 80% if the older ones would take them home with 'em.
