Overview

• Disney+ officially canceled its Goosebumps series on August 7, 2025, concluding two self-contained anthology seasons based on R.L. Stine’s horror novels.
• The series amassed 75 million U.S. viewing hours and 43 million internationally, though its second season failed to secure a spot on Nielsen’s streaming rankings.
• Nicholas Stoller and Rob Letterman developed the reboot and served as executive producers alongside showrunner Hilary Winston and teams from Original Film and Scholastic Entertainment.
• Season one premiered in October 2023 with weekly episode releases, and season two, subtitled The Vanishing, debuted in January 2025 as an eight-episode batch.
• The cancellation aligns with Disney+’s recent cost-cutting measures under CEO Bob Iger aimed at driving streaming profitability.
