My son Bode had one request for his July birthday: Goosebumps books. Lots of them. He spent his summer entrenched in this Scholastic series that has sold more than 400 million books worldwide by author R.L. Stine has been recognized as one of the bestselling children’s authors in history. Now, the literary phenomenon is coming to the big screen on October 16, 2015.
Well, I earned the “Mom of the Year” award when I told him that Mile High Mamas will be hosting a free VIP screening of GOOSEBUMPS (rated: PG) on Monday, October 12 at 6:30 p.m. at the UA Colorado Mills. We have the entire theater reserved for you, Dear Readers. In addition, every person in attendance will receive a free small popcorn and soda.
If that doesn’t give you goosebumps….
About Goosebumps
In Goosebumps, teenager Zach Cooper (Dylan Minnette), upset about moving from a big city to a small town, finds a silver lining when he meets the beautiful girl, Hannah (Odeya Rush), living right next door, and makes a quick friend in Champ (Ryan Lee). But every silver lining has a cloud, and Zach’s comes when he learns that Hannah’s mysterious dad is in fact R.L. Stine (Jack Black), the author of the bestselling Goosebumps series. As Zach starts learning about the strange family next door, he soon discovers that Stine holds a dangerous secret: the creatures that his stories made famous are real, and Stine protects his readers by keeping them locked up in their books. When Stine’s creations are unintentionally released from their manuscripts, Zach’s life takes a turn for the weird. In a crazy night of adventure, it’s up to Zach, Hannah, Champ, and Stine to team up and get all of these figments of Stine’s imagination – including Slappy the Dummy, the girl with the haunted mask, the gnomes and many more – back in the books where they belong to save the town.
