I really, really hope we don’t have to wait for a Solo: A Star Wars Story type of reveal on this one.
Luckily, the Goosebumps Twitter account has been pretty active with casting announcements of late, so hopefully we’ll see some stuff from the set soon and hopefully we’ll get all the final confirmations very soon.
There’s no word on exactly why R.L. Stine deleted his announcement, but if we had to guess the studio either wanted to wait to reveal the name or the title Stine brought up is only currently the working title of the flick.
At this point, if Slappy Halloween is the subtitle for Goosebumps 2 the cat’s out of the bag, and even if it’s only the working title, it at least seemingly reveals that Slappy is the route the studio ultimately is going down with the new movie.
