Goosebumps Season 2 Greenlit at Disney+

Goosebumps is coming back with an anthology twist on Disney+!

The horror-comedy series based on R.L. Stine’s bestselling Scholastic book series has been greenlit for Season 2. The sophomore season will feature a new mystery, a new adventure, and a new chapter from Stine’s source material. 

Disney Branded Television announced that Goosebumps had been greenlit for a second season at the 2024 Television Critics Association Winter Press Tour in Pasadena, California, sharing that the new eight-episode installment will make the series an anthology with a new cast, setting, and story. 

“Audiences everywhere fell in love with the series’ chills, thrills, heart, and humor, making it one of Disney Branded Television’s most-watched shows of last year,” Ayo Davis, president, Disney Branded Television, said.

“We can’t wait to dive deeper into the brilliant mind of R.L. Stine, and to collaborate once again with Sony Pictures Television, Scholastic Entertainment, and our fantastic creative team to bring an entirely new mystery to Disney+ for season two,” Davis added.

Developed by executive producers Nicholas Stoller and Rob Letterman, Goosebumps made its five-episode debut on Friday, October 13, on Disney+ and Hulu.

The debut season, starring Justin Long, Rachael Harris, Long, Harris, Zack Morris, Isa Briones, Miles McKenna, Ana Yi Puig, and Will Price, was nominated for a ​​PGA Award in the Outstanding Children’s Program category and a DGA Award in the Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Children’s Programs category.

“We are incredibly proud of the work of our writers, producers, cast, and crew and the vision they brought to season one, which a new generation of fans are loving alongside those who grew up in R.L. Stine’s iconic world,” Katherine Pope, president of Sony Pictures Television Studios, said.

“Like when you cracked open a new book in the Goosebumps series, we can’t wait to see how the writers flip the show on its head as we explore the series as an anthology. Thanks to Disney Branded Television, who remain steadfast partners throughout this wonderfully chilling journey,” Pope added.

Goosebumps Season 2 will follow teenage siblings who “discover a threat within their home, setting off a chain of events that unravel a profound mystery. As they delve into the unknown, the duo find themselves entangled in the story of five teenagers who mysteriously vanished in 1994,” per the synopsis.

Showrunner Hilary Winston, Neal H. Moritz, Scholastic Entertainment’s Iole Lucchese, Pavun Shetty, Conor Welch, Scholastic Entertainment’s Caitlin Friedman, and Erin O’Malley executive produce the show.
