So Funny, He'll Give You 'Goosebumps'

If you grew up in the United States in the 1990s, chances are you came across the "Goosebumps" books. Still one of the best-selling book series of all time, this month marks the 25th anniversary of "Goosebumps'" first release. And get this: before the series' author Robert Lawrence (R.L.)
