Definitely Micheal has my Options as well. I Adore the first Living Dummy Novel, such a great cover, the fact that’s a painting is flipping crazy!

I love the Night of the living dummy II book cover. Especially the innocence and thriller atmosphere tone that the book brings, it's amazing through and through! 10+/10 💯👍

One Day at Horrorland might honestly be my absolute favorite cover. I love it, and I have such fond memories of reading that book as a kid. I always loved that book and the episode. God bless! 🙏🏻

There are so many great GB from the original series that it's soooo hard to choose my #1 fave, but I do LOVE the One Day At Horrorland cover and no matter how many Horrorland reprints with new covers, it won't touch the original, ever! I also have fond memories of the book too; I LOVED reading about the creative rides that Stine came up with and the worldbuilding he created for that theme park. . . .especially that coffin ride or the slide that rides forever---LOVE IT!!

It's a good cover, crappy book. Everyone loves it. I thought it was corny. One of the worst written and full of plot holes, even for just GB book.

Actually Michael the "Be Careful What You Wish For" cover that you show in the video is by Tim Jacobus, the original cover was by a guy called Stanislaw Fernandes. Great Video!

"Put some eggs in your body...In your mouth. Anyways." Haha, that made me laugh! One of my favorites has always been The Scarecrow Walks at Midnight.

i agree with night of the living dummy being the best cover. it’s just such a classic, and such a memorable cover that just beats the rest easily. i love the book, the episode, slappy in general is my favorite monster.

The “Be Careful What You Wish For” cover that you showed is the Jacobus one.

My hairiest adventure book minds me the kid from Jumanji movie lol

Amazing ranking of the original goosebumps series artworks.

Thank you for this video, Michael. Up on my list just based off covers are the original covers for Night of the Living Dummy III, Why I'm Afraid of Bees, Be Careful What You Wish For, Cuckoo Clock of Doom and Bad Hare Day.

Could also agree with your number one pick, I only have a handful of goosebumps books, night of the living dummy being one of them, and it is definitely the most memorable and frightening cover of the ones I have for sure, the books I have were originally my brother's and when he gave them to me, that cover stuck with me the most

It's here!

Great ranking 8).

Love your content I'm from Virginia too, beautiful state its a bit pricy in somethingss but could be worse, as a kid I would always get the books from the school library(with child proof hard covers with woven cardboard to make them last longer), but I wouldn't read them just hold them for the covers, it wasn't till recently I've read the books and the first I read was Night in Terror Tower(it just called to me) and since theres hits and misses usually the books had 1 of 5 outcomes like their monsters themselves, ironic fate twist, ambigous ending, Stines humor ending, or actually sad/blissful ending.

gassiest laugh of the goosebump enthusiasts

It's hard to choose since I actually enjoy all 62 covers. If I had to pick some in no particular order then I would say one day at horrorland, Phantom of the Auditorium,The Curse Of The Mummy's Tomb. beast from east, werewolf of fever swamp,scarecrow and ghost beach. I never noticed the yes in the haunted school book, pretty creepy. I'm such a nerd that I guessed correctly the last 10 remaining books for your favorite covers lol. I was surprised to see attack of the jack o lanterns so high, its a nice one but didn't expect it to be #2.

Ghost Beach was the 1st book I ever read with my mom and Scarecrow Walks at Midnight😈

The becareful what you wish for that you showed was drawn by Jacobus

And ya your right being 5 years old and seeing welcome to dead house was like wtf when I saw it lol staple of my childhood.

11:23 the Blob on that cover looks way too much like Krang from the original Ninja Turtles cartoon 18:23 and the head on this cover looks way too much like the guy in the waiting room from Beetlejuice! 30:43 you can probably easily remove that sticker by using a hairdryer and your fingernail

Just to correct you on the Be Careful What You Wish For cover. The one you showed in the video was the reprint cover by Jacobus. The original cover was done by a different artist.

I have become irrationally angry at how low Beast from the East is. I actually searched for this video after seeing the low ranking it got in the story rankings and thought "Well certainly he really liked the cover" This one is one of my favorites.

i have all 62 books

No way you put 3 Slappy books in the top 10 🥴. Otherwise great list though.

I'm not a big fan of Brandon Dorman's covers; they just don't have that IT factor that Tim Jacobus accomplished. I LOVE Jacobus' cover of The Horror At Camp Jellyjam, which is one of my favorite OG books. His cover is creepy and ominous and it doesn't spoil anything. The Brandon Dorman, on the other hand, spoils the mid-twist in the book---it doesn't leave anything to the reader's imagination---and it doesn't look creepy, freaky, or ominous. It's not an awful cover; it just doesn't touch the original! I don't see how the original cover can be topped. Great book, great original book cover!

Haha more hate for monster blood one. Maybe I can lighten ur heart on it. R.l stine has said before that when he started goosebumps he didn't do the best with blending scares and humor so that is why the first two books he wrote were mostly scary with no real humor in them. (Specially welecome to dead house) when he got to monster blood he was moving into putting humor in the books he might have gone alittle to far but, hey he was still getting his style down for writing kids book. Up to this point he had only don't young adult book (like fear street). So the fact the the first two books r scarier show that they were the first two books he wrote. Hope this softened ur heart on monster blood one. That being said few can deny this cover to be one of the better ones from the original 62. My favorite cover would have to be one day in horrorland. Love the park in the back ground. Great video looking forward to series 2000s.

The og design for slappy is creepy as hell

Do you remember when they had goosebumps toys at taco bell for there kids meal? Maybe im older but i remember tryna eat that food to get the toy n i didnt like tacos or that kinda food when i was young ill never forget how hard it was to eat that food just to get a goosebumps toy.
