[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=”2978″ img_size=”800×500″ alignment=”center”][vc_column_text]For those fans of R.L. Stein’s Goosebumps books, of which there were many, the 2015 film based on his books was both exciting and worrisome as they regarded the Stein books as a very personal thing. They were pleasantly surprised when it became an unexpected critical and financial hit, sitting at 76 percent positive reviews on review aggregator site Rotten Tomatoes and taking in $150 million worldwide.
While we still have some time before Halloween gets here the recently released international Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween trailer should help get you into the Halloween spirit. Check out the new trailer below before the film lands in theaters on October 12th.
The original film starred Jack Black as the author of the Goosebumps series, only for an accident to occur in which his most iconic creations lept from the pages of their books to begin to attack his community. Black also voiced the nefarious ventriloquist dummy Slappy, a character who masterminded the mayhem. This character is a key player in the new sequel.
While the official synopsis for the film sequel has yet to be released, Backstage teased details about the film, which read, “This film will feature one of the series’ more notorious villains: Slappy, the evil ventriloquist’s dummy who’s hell-bent on jump-starting the Halloween apocalypse. Three friends must stop the stuffed adversary before he ruins Halloween for good.”
Are you ready for another journey into R.L. Stein’s Goosebump world? Does the absence of Jack Black matter to you? We at GVNation look forward to your reviews.[/vc_column_text][vc_video link=”https://youtu.be/3tGxz_wB5Ec” align=”center”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
