    Maybe it’s an age thing? I’m 41 and have no memory of these books existing, but I do remember Goosebumps.

      You are the exact age group within 2 years of these books and them being popular. They were the biggest push at your scholastic book fairs when you were in jr.high and 13 years old. They were huge 1996-1998

      I’m only a couple years younger (40 in February). It could have been regional, maybe (I’m in California). I just remember seeing them all the time in my school library and I knew at least 2 people that did one of them as book reports for class.
