Terwijl ze probeerden de boze geesten te heroveren, ontsloot de groep geheimen uit het verleden van hun ouders.
Goosebumps played the leading role And Will price as the show's protagonists. However, when the series was renewed four months later, Disney confirmed that there would be a cast and story shake-up.
Season 2 now features new stars, a new setting, and a new mystery for the characters to solve. The writing team – which is led by showrunner Hilary Winston – is expected to return to continue bringing Stine's vision to life.
The decision to wipe the slate clean previously impacted Freeform Cruel summer also. The teen drama originally followed Kate Wallis (Olivia Holt) and Jeanette Turner (Chiara Aurelia) when viewers were caught between two different sides of a kidnapping story.
