It's finally time to give you a bookshelf tour of my Goosebumps knock-off collection! Yes, I have many Goosebumps books in my private library, but I also have several book series that were spawned by the success of R.L. Stine's globally famous (and now iconic) series. In this bookshelf tour, you will see all the books I currently own from the following middle-grade horror series: Shivers by M.D. Spenser, Shadow Zone by J.R. Black (seeing a trend here?), Bone Chillers by Betsy Haynes, Graveyard School by Tom B. Stone, Strange Matter, Spinetinglers by M.T. Coffin, Choose Your Own Nightmare, FrightVision, MonsterStreet, Frightville, Fright Time, Deadtime Stories, The Adventures of the Bailey School Kids, Ghostville Elementary, Spine Shivers, Don't Call at All by Robbie Myles, Cyber Zone, Scary Tales, Scream Shop, Are You Afraid of the Dark? books, and Spooksville by Christopher Pike, author of many teen horror books from the '80s and '90s, and the inspiration for The Midnight Club series coming soon to Netflix!
I hope you enjoy this long bookish video celebrating the legacy of these knock-offs that I still read and appreciate.

Hi creeps! My name is Cameron Chaney. I am a horror author (see links above for info on my books) and I am also the host of Library Macabre, a BookTube channel focusing on horror, both vintage and new, indie and mainstream. Don't care for horror? No worries! I feature other literary genres on my channel as well. I just love books! You might even see an occasional video about horror films. If it's spooky, I'm here for it. :-)

Also, Cameron, to be a little serious, in a way I consider you a bit of an inspiration when it comes to reading full fledged novels. As a kid, I never really read all that much, but as I got into my mid to late twenties, I read more. Your enthusiasm for books and reading is just really dang cool and delightfully nerdy that it makes me want to read more.

I've been hyped for this one. Gonna give notes on the ones I want to comment on. Phantom Valley: This actually predates Goosebumps, starting in 1991. The author also wrote a couple Ghosts of Fear Street books, and has ghostwritten one Tales to give you goosebumps story. I even interacted with her once. Shivers: This series is nuts and a big mixed bag. They can often be frankly. pretty and very empty so it's probably the weakest of these easily but one of the most interesting, and when it's good it is really good, wish MD Spenser wasn't a jerk IRL though as I found out this year lol. I've had Curse of the New Kid on my radar don't worry lol. I've read Pool Ghoul and uh, spoilers but it's basically a Captain Planet episode disguised as a horror book. I read a recap of Creepy Clothes and it's supposed of the really good and dark/deep ones so I think you are remembering wrong when you said "don't expect anything dark". Spooksville; Yes, this was the big one I'm into. I did a whole thing on the series on my blog last year, it was a big deep dive that was fun to do. It's a solid fun series with good characters. Bone Chillers: Hell yeah. These are always wild and fun. Not always the most consistent sadly, but they are usually good. I enjoyed the TV show as well. Frankenturkey is a classic. Glad you mentioned the ghostwriters, it's been found Shivers had some too...and of course no doubt Stine had them too lol, even mentioned one case already. Tim did all of the covers, and fun fact: there's no credited ghostwriter for Dog ate my homework. Graveyard: Someone I follow is a big fan of this series, it's their favorite. So far I like them, but they haven't fully lived up to the hype. The characters could be better, even that that's the aspect that gets praise. Otherwise, good fun with some solid twists. I like them being set in the same place, with characters popping up again. Spinechillers: Only read one and it was not good, I imagine the rest are the same. That said, I interacted with the author once and he was cool. I can't believe I respect him more than MD Spenser. There's actually another Christian one called Heebie Jeebies, but the one I read was surprisingly good. Deadtime Stories: Not counting Spinechillers, I'd call it my personal least favorite. They're usually fine but nothing too special, a bit less wild/dark than some of these others. AG Cascone did some Ghosts of Fear Street as well and likely did some Tales too. Tim only did like 3, most were Broeck Steadman, who did the Ghosts covers. Shadow Zone; I watched the Undead Express movie but that's it. It was okay. Spinetinglers: I've been getting into this one. The ones I read have been pretty solid, can get dark and a bit deeper, with one having one of the best twists I've seen in these. The authors were allowed to do their own thing which shows, usually in a good way but not always. Choose Your Own Nightmares: Haven't read one yet but I watched parts of the PC games and they are wild. One ending in How I Became a Freak is one of the most shockingly dark things ever. Modern Throwbacks: I've read from a fair bit of these, Monsterstreet has been very solid, Fright Vision is shaping to my favorite, I've also read a couple Spineshivers and one from Twisted Books which was pretty good. One I'd suggest is Creepover, I read one and was pleasntly surprised. Bailey School Kids; I used to be into these back in the day, no idea how they hold up hear but they were still fun. I love the joke of how the covers are just kids gawking at gay people. Debbie Dadey actually follows me on Twitter. Are you afraid of the dark; I read one, tale of the bad tempered ghost and it was decent, decent fan of the series of course. Strange Matter: Pretty into these, often dark and solid, and another one set in the same place. Strange Force is really good too. Whew.

Very impressive collection! I tried reading the first Fright Time book this year and I couldn't get into it - I did not like the writing at all, lol. And even though I didn't much care for the Shivers series, either, Waldo's Wax Museum is forever ingrained into memory - that book was bonkers. I will keep my eyes out for some of those Bone Chillers and Deadtime Stories books, I would like to try those! That's cool that Jacobus did so much artwork outside of Goosebumps, I had no idea about that - his illustrations are always fantastic, of course. I read a few of the Choose Your Own Nightmare books when I was younger but I remember thinking they weren't nearly as good as the GYG's ;) And a friend of mine sent me one of the Spinetinglers books recently... can't wait to read it. Awesome collection!

Honestly, I can appreciate a fan of Goosebumps who grew up on the series and became a author to some stories (of course with others from what I've researched inside the anthologies), which helps not only show genuine passion, they show a kind of understanding for the feeling, so I have good feelings for this channel, since I also grew up with the series, maybe not as much as I could, though I can appreciate the works made

My favorite KZbinr 🧡! Your channel is a treasured gem. The feelings I get of cozy sweater weather, Cool crisp autumn breezes engulf me as I experience your spooky content. What a fantastic collection you have. I grew up reading Christopher Pike and R.L. Stine. As well as many other obscure 90’s authors featured on your platform. A lot of underrated writers and stories i thought had been completely forgotten. Come to find out, there are thousands of us missing the magic of vintage YA books. The nostalgia I feel in your library inspires me to recreate my collection’s too!

Count me among those you've inspired to pick up some of these books. I actually started collecting them during the summer mostly because I kept seeing them pop up in your videos and also because I went through an intense period of 90s nostalgia. Have only read a few of them and the quality definitely varies but at worst they are harmless fun. Definitely need to get more of the Shivers books, though!

Your enthusiasm is way too infectious.... though I'm not really complaining.

Thank you for sharing your collection! I have never seen some of these but I adored Bone Chillers and Deadtime Stories growing up. I'm actually planning to re-read some Bone Chillers next year (and some I never had as a kid). Little Pet Shop of Horrors & Strange Brew were my favorites. I admit I bought Terror in Tiny Town because the doll on the cover definitely looked like Chucky, who I was obsessed with as a kid (I'm sure that was perfectly normal...haha!). I'm sad the Bone Chillers show didn't catch on. I remember those weird rip-offs called Gooseflumps or something featuring bad dairy and dog poop as well. If you have trouble finding the 2nd Bone Chillers, let me know. I just saw a copy at my local thrift store and would be happy to check for you if you want to swap or something.

Shivers is another I've seen mentioned maybe one other time. It's really nice to see these lesser known series getting talked about! Deadtime Stories! I remember distinctly buying a few of those books when I was young. Not as good imo, but still some quick fun. I always liked that skeleton at the top.

I would be quite impressed if ever to find a bootleg or not -any more messed up than the schizophrenic Welcome to the Dead House. The fact that the whole town was in on it and how the undead kids all relished in their evil -so terrifying its surreal. What a set up. I could picture each kid in the dead house re-introducing themselves in the most evilest badass way -walking on out and dominating the stage. Like the line you first read about Derry in It - "It was Derry" Like the living planet Ego in the marvel universe. It was the first time I ever had to do a double take to what I was reading. It was the purest form of the suspension of disbelief I ever had - like for a solid minute it was all actually real.

I actually have been looking for those dead time stories name for years. I had that first book but lost it after the summer. I read it with my aunt and couldn't for the life of me remember the name. Thank you

I owned #15 #17 #18 of the Fright Timeseries as a kid! I know they were knock offs... but I loved them!

How many people said, "GOD bless you " when he sneezed? 🤚🏼🙂 Hey Cameron, great video. I forgot "Are You Afraid..." is an actual book. I really liked that show when it was on ANNNND I remember the covers glowing in the dark. To me, that's what made the books so much more cooler. Your videos pretty much always leave me wanting to run out to a library or bookstore and hunt for more books. As if I really need to. 😏 I enjoy your videos, chats and this video. Thanks for sharing. 😊

Just stumbled upon this channel and it’s so fun! Spooksville was my absolute favorite series growing up and I still have the complete OG series. I’ve looked after them for years and I will never let them go. I had no idea they were rare but they are invaluable to me! I reread them all a few years ago when they released the short-lived Spooksville tv series. The tv show was…not great. lol

Thanks for much for watching! I’m glad you’re enjoying the channel. You’re so lucky to have the full series! Yes, the later books are extremely rare. I saw the show too and you’re right, it’s not great 😂

HELP! In the late 70’s I used to read a very scary series. I mean very not age appropriate for me at 8-9 years old. It was like Goosebumps but it was not Goosebumps and I don’t remember it being any of the ones you mention here. It’s driving me crazy trying to remember.

I still have a few of the Fright Time books. My favorite story in them had to be "Who Am I?" Also, some of those Shivers books look AWESOME, definitely going to have to watch for those.

Another small series you might want to check out is one called Apple Chillers. I've only ever owned 2 of those, but I think I remember them being good, it's just been a long time since I read them. The ones I have are called Scared to Death & Scared Stiff.

I have all the Graveyard School books. It is an amazing series that no one really knows about. Graveyard School would have made a great tv show honestly. Some of the books are insanely expensive for a paperback book. I got mine at yard sales, thrift stores and flea markets. I think I got one from paperback swap that if I had purchased instead of traded a book for would have been $68 USD.
