Who else remembers the spine-chilling thrill of reading Goosebumps books late at night, long after we were supposed to be asleep? With their creepy covers and unsettling titles, these classic R.L. Stine tales gave us goosebumps in every sense of the word. Whether we were flipping the pages of Night of the Living Dummy or sweating through The Haunted Mask, each Goosebumps book brought us face-to-face with our worst nightmares—yet we couldn't get enough of them.
For those of us who grew up on this terrifyingly delightful series, Funko Pop! is bringing back all the spooky nostalgia with their new Goosebumps Funko Pop! figures. Available soon at Barnes & Noble, these collectibles transport us right back to the eerie stories that haunted our childhoods. But now, instead of lurking in the pages of a book, these iconic characters can sit right on our shelves—adorably creepy and perfect for fans both old and new.
Let’s dive into the ghoulish lineup of these upcoming figures and why we think they deserve a spot in every Goosebumps fan’s collection.
Funko Pop! Meets Goosebumps: A Match Made in Spooky Heaven
The Goosebumps series has always been about taking our wildest fears and turning them into something we couldn't put down. It's only fitting that Funko, the king of turning pop culture characters into vinyl icons, has brought this horror franchise to life in their distinct style. With Funko Pops, we're getting a version of these terrifying characters that's not just collectible but also (dare we say it) kind of cute? It’s an odd but perfect mix: horror, nostalgia, and the unmistakable charm of Funko.
Funko Pop! knows how to take something eerie and twist it into something lovable without losing what made it so memorable in the first place. The Goosebumps lineup is no different, featuring some of the most iconic monsters and villains from the series that once had us checking under our beds at night.
A Creepy Blast from the Past
Werewolf of Fever Swamp (#34)
Let’s start with a personal favorite: the Werewolf of Fever Swamp. Who could forget this tale of a young boy facing off against the mysterious and menacing werewolf lurking in the swamps? The Werewolf of Fever Swamp Funko Pop! figure captures the wild intensity of the beast, all while maintaining Funko’s signature oversized head and cartoonish proportions. With its snarling mouth and silver fur, this little figure feels both nostalgic and menacing, a reminder of the thrills and chills we got from reading this Goosebumps book for the first time.
When we think back to the feverish suspense of that story, it’s impossible not to feel a shiver down our spines. This Funko Pop perfectly captures that feeling, bringing one of the series’ most memorable monsters into our homes in vinyl form.
Attack of the Mutant (#31)
Next up, we have the Attack of the Mutant Funko Pop! Based on the story of Skipper, an average comic book fan who finds himself living out a real-life adventure with his favorite superhero villain, the Masked Mutant. This figure is a must-have for any Goosebumps fan, especially those who also love comic books. The vibrant blue and orange costume of the Masked Mutant pops (pun intended) right out of the box, reminding us of the colorful yet menacing supervillain we loved to fear.
This Funko figure is particularly exciting for collectors who are fans of both Goosebumps and superhero culture. It’s like owning a piece of both worlds in one figure. Plus, the Masked Mutant's sharp angles and intense expression make this one stand out as a piece of nostalgia with a modern twist.
Nightmares Come to Life: Collect the Villains You Love to Fear
Night of the Living Dummy (#32)
Oh, Slappy. How many sleepless nights did this evil ventriloquist dummy give us? One of Goosebumps’ most iconic villains, Slappy returns in Funko Pop! form, but don’t let his oversized head and beady eyes fool you—this figure still has all the creep factor of the original. Slappy is perfectly captured in his dark suit and red bow tie, looking as though he's just waiting for his chance to leap off the shelf and cause some mischief.
For those of us who read Night of the Living Dummy, Slappy's sinister grin still haunts our memories. Now, we can finally face him once again—but this time, on our own terms. Slappy’s Funko figure reminds us why he’s such a Goosebumps classic: because even in miniature form, he still looks ready to take over.
This figure is a must for any Goosebumps collector, and let’s be honest, what collection would be complete without the series’ most famous villain?
Bad Hare Day (#30)
Bad Hare Day might not be as well-known as some of the other Goosebumps stories, but its Funko Pop! figure is sure to leave an impression. The horrifying magician’s rabbit from this tale is brought to life in all its creepy, toothy glory. With glowing green eyes and sharp fangs, this figure is not the cute, cuddly bunny you might expect—it’s a menacing reminder of the magical mayhem from the original story.
If you’re someone who loves the more bizarre and twisted side of Goosebumps, this is the figure for you. It’s an oddball in the best way possible, and we can’t help but love how Funko has taken this lesser-known character and made it unforgettable.
The Haunted Mask (#36): Exclusive Barnes & Noble Must-Have
One of the crown jewels of this collection is the Haunted Mask Funko Pop!—and it’s a Barnes & Noble exclusive! We all remember Carly Beth’s terrifying ordeal after putting on a Halloween mask that refuses to come off, transforming her into a monstrous version of herself. The Haunted Mask is one of the most iconic and terrifying Goosebumps tales, and this exclusive Funko figure does it justice with its vibrant green face, purple lips, and sinister yellow eyes.
This figure isn’t just a throwback to one of the best Goosebumps episodes ever—it’s also an eye-catching addition to any collection. The exclusive status makes it even more special, so if you're a true fan, this is one you won't want to miss out on. The vivid details and eerie expression make this figure a standout piece in the Goosebumps Funko line.
