- Book 1:
Scariest. Book. Ever.
Scariest. Book. Ever. launched R. L. Stine's House of Shivers series on September 19, 2023, at 155 pages -- the fifth relaunch of the Goosebumps brand and its most deliberate reset yet, retiring Slappy the dummy from center stage in favor of an entirely new lineup of monsters, with titled chapters for the first time in the numbered line's history.

Goblin Monday
Goblin Monday followed about six months later, on March 5, 2024, running a touch shorter at 146 pages -- a standalone House of Shivers story with its own new cast, part of R.L. Stine's newest Goosebumps relaunch.

About the Goosebumps House of Shivers series
Goosebumps House of Shivers, launched in September 2023, is R.L. Stine's current, fifth relaunch of the Goosebumps brand and its most deliberate reset yet: after nearly fifteen years built around Slappy the dummy, House of Shivers retires him from center stage in favor of an entirely new lineup of monsters intended to become just as memorable. New illustrator Robert Ball gives the covers a brighter, more stylized look than predecessor Brandon Dorman's more realistic art, and the books adopt titled chapters for the first time in the numbered Goosebumps line's history.
The formula underneath is unmistakably classic Goosebumps: an ordinary kid or sibling pair stumbles into a genuinely creepy situation -- a goblin loose on a Monday, a summer camp haunted by a Bigfoot-like creature, a walking mummy, a name better left unsaid -- rendered in short, cliffhanger-driven chapters aimed at middle-grade readers. Each book is a fresh, standalone cast and setting, continuing the format Stine established with the original 1992 series over three decades earlier.
As the active, ongoing Goosebumps line, House of Shivers continues to add new titles on a regular schedule, with further entries already announced beyond what has published so far.
Frequently asked questions
How many books are in Goosebumps House of Shivers so far?

What order should I read Goosebumps House of Shivers in?
Publication order, used here, though every book is a standalone story with a new cast, so you can start anywhere.
Is Goosebumps House of Shivers still ongoing?
Yes -- it's R.L. Stine's current, actively-publishing Goosebumps line, with new titles released roughly twice a year.
Does Slappy the dummy appear in Goosebumps House of Shivers?
No -- House of Shivers deliberately introduces an entirely new lineup of monsters rather than continuing Slappy, who had been the central recurring villain of the preceding SlappyWorld line.
Is Goosebumps House of Shivers connected to the original Goosebumps series?
It's the same R.L. Stine brand and format, but is tracked as its own separate numbered series from the original 1992-97 run and the Series 2000, HorrorLand, Most Wanted and SlappyWorld relaunches that came before it.
