R.L. Stine

Originally from Columbus, Ohio, R.L. Stine didn't immediately start out scaring kids. Originally, he made them laugh. After graduating from Ohio State University, Stine wrote joke and humor books for 10 years.

In 1986, he wrote his first teen horror novel, Blind Date. A couple years later, he created the Fear Street series and then Goosebumps. Goosebumps became a quick hit and was translated into 32 different languages. Soon after, it was a popular television show. Stine has sold over 350 million books internationally, making him one of the best-selling children's authors in history.
