Happy Birthday, R.L. Stine! May your day be filled with more thrills than a Goosebumps cliffhanger and fewer scares than a Fear Street prom night. You've given generations of readers sleepless nights, suspicious glances at ventriloquist dummies, and an irrational fear of haunted amusement parks—thanks for that!Your timeless tales continue to captivate new audiences, proving once again that creepy never goes out of style. Here's hoping your birthday cake doesn't mysteriously whisper or glow green this year—but if it does, we're sure you'll handle it like the master storyteller you are. Keep scaring us silly; we wouldn't have it any other way!
