Our take on Goosebumps: The Vanishing
Maybe there is a connection
It cannot be overstated as much Goosebumps Season 1 ended on a cliffhanger, with the fate of several characters hanging in the balance. Given that both stories take place in the early 1990s, perhaps there is an opportunity for previous series regulars to appear in surprise cameos. After the viewership success of the debut season of the adaptation, with the episodes regularly appearing on Nielsen’s streaming charts, it remains to be seen whether the second iteration can find the same audience, especially since it is being released long after Halloween.
