Goosebumps Books 1-10

Can't believe that it took me nearly two years to just do 10 covers for the books. Will be posting more Goosebumps in the future, along with other stuff.

Read more to know my personal opinions and critiques on my fanart for each book:

Welcome to Dead House: I wanted to make look alive like Monster House, so I gave it more human characteristics (ie: the people in the windows to form eyes, or the finger-like branches.) Also paid homage to a horror film by styling it after The Amityville Horror house.

The Benson children themselves look a bit depressed, that's because the first book is actually more scarier than the rest of the series, so they're a bit angsty.

Stay Out of the Basement: This one killed a lot of my green markers lol. I tried to make Dr. Brewer as menacing as possible while still showing that he is a father with the photos, There was going to be more plants reaching out, but I decided that the leaves hidden on him would be enough.

Though I have to admit my disappointment with the lighting. It still looks a bit too bright, and not dark enough. That's just my own critique.

Monster Blood: Honestly, pretty mixed about this one. While I'm proud of the bubbling ooze that looks like a skull, which is outlined by one of my colored pens. I'm not proud that everything else is so muted with brown. Almost all of Jacobus' works are vibrant and saturated, so it being dull in colors feels like a disservice to him.

Also, Andy's last name was made up by me, she apparently just doesn't have one. It's inspired by Stephen King. Btw, hope you love banana and strawberry dyed hair, you'll see more of it soon in future batches.

Say Cheese and Die!: One of my favorite books, and of course it gets the best fanart imo. The screaming skeleton form of skeleton of Greg Banks with red bg in the polaroid, contrasting with the dark background is just super cool, coolest shit I've ever done. Though I might be biased, I really like skeletons. Like Curly.

I actually made concept art for a Say Cheese and Die! graphic novel, which includes drawings of the photos and Spidey! Let me know if you're curious.

The Curse of The Mummy's Tomb: Not much to this one honestly. Just a mummy casually busting down a wall filled with hieroglyphics. Though I will say, I was experimenting with shading with purple and blues like Jacobus. As you can see, didn't stick for long.

This is also the book that I discovered that if the protag doesn't have a last name, then there is an official one either in the Presents novels, the mobile app, comics or other.

Let's Get Invisible!: This was pretty tricky to draw. Drawing someone turning invisible maybe easy in Photoshop or Procreate, but this was traditional art. Sure Jacobus did it with airbrushes, but I all had were pens and markers. But I somehow managed to pull it off, which is insane that I even managed that in the first place.

Night of the Living Dummy: Ah, the infamous Pamela Vorhees book, where the main antagonist isn't the mascot, but instead some other puppet lol. I've seen a lot of fanart of Slappy, but never of Mr. Wood. So I wanted to do justice for Wood while still showcasing Slappy. While I am proud for how it mostly turned out, there are two things that bother me. 1. This is the night sky that is black, the rest are either blue or purple. 2. I forgot to add the lines that make the jaw on Mr. Wood, whoops.

Aside from that, I hope guys like that Misfits poster in the background and Kris's cool hair cut. The green was inspired by the comic adaption not 2015 Jacksepticeye.

The Girl Who Cried Monster: Please forgive me for the small thumbnail, I wasn't using a ruler at the time. The design for Mr. Mortman wasn't much of a challenge. I loosely based it off of the French rendition of the cover and gave him a large leech-like mouth.

In my headcannon, the teeth spin like a garbage disposal, making easy work of the turtles.

Welcome to Camp Nightmare: Another one of my favorites, and I think I did a decent enough job, too. The lighting is perfect, the clouds look alien enough, and you can just barely see the screaming campers inside the tent. I do have one issue though, and that is the size of the monster, Sabre. In the original sketch I did, he was supposed to blend in like a bush, but instead he looks like Sasquatch Sr. Oh well.

While they did give Billy a last name in the Presents books, I had to make up one for Dawn. Just based it off Gwen Stacy lol. Also, hope you enjoy the little bonus pictures down below.

The Ghost Next Door: The original Jacobus art was perfectly vague enough to keep the twist there but not spoil anything. Of course to do the same thing, but with a twist of my own. The "ghost" shadow that you see in the street is the Dark Figure that follows Hannah around or when Danny is near. I wanted it to look like it was constantly on fire, since SPOILERS: someone in the book does die in a fire.

Another headcannon is that the Dark Figure isn't actually a ghost or whatever, but instead the embodiment of Misery.

March Wrap Up--

What a weird month March was. I had some highs and lows with my reading, but I was most surprised about the amount I managed to read. I was on vacation for a third of the month yet still managed to read 3,398 pages across 11 books. Arguments could be made that my goal to read less this year has been a spectacular failure since I’m already two-thirds of the way to my yearly goal. I will just make the argument that the only reason I’m reading as much as I am is that I’ve taken the pressure off the numbers by reducing my goal for the year.

Comics/Graphic Novels-- 1. Thinking of You by Beth Evans--4 stars.

2. Teen Titans: Robin--Kami Garcia, Gabriel Picolo--4.25 stars.

3. Deadly Class Vol. 1: Reagan Youth by Rick Remender--2 stars.

Novellas/Short Stories-- 1. A Prayer for the Crown-Shy by Becky Chambers--4 stars.

Novels-- 1. Inkheart by Cornelia Funke--3.25 stars.

2. Not a Happy Family by Shari Lapena--3 stars.

3. Silver in the Bone by Alexandra Bracken--3.5 stars.

4. Blood Debts by Terry J. Benton-Walker--3 stars.

5. Mask of Shadows by Linsey Miller--2.75 stars.

6. The Last to Vanish by Megan Miranda--4 stars.

7. The Library of the Dead by T.L. Huchu-- 2.75 stars. Average rating: 3.32 stars.

Learn about Florida Bats at Fort Cooper State Park September 20

Due to popular demand, the Friends of Fort Cooper will again feature a special program with observation of Florida’s bats on Friday, September 20, 2024, at Fort Cooper State Park, 3100 S. Old Floral City Road in Inverness. Reservations for this popular program are highly recommended! Thanks to a Boy Scout Eagle project, Fort Cooper has a huge bat house that now has thousands of inhabitants.  The presentation will be given by Shari Blissett-Clark, President of Florida Bat Conservancy and board member of Bat Belfrys Inc., dedicated to conserving Florida's bats!  Visitors will start the evening in Fort Cooper’s Rec Hall with a social at 6:00 p.m. followed by a 6:15 p.m. presentation by Ms. Blissett-Clark. Join the Florida Bat Conservancy for a colorful introduction to the bats that fly through Florida's yards and neighborhoods every night. Learn fascinating bat-facts and discover the environmental and economic value of these important mammals.  Finally, we will discuss simple steps anyone can take to encourage bat activity in their yard. Live Florida bats will accompany the program. Florida Bat Presentation and Bat Viewing at Fort Cooper State Park September 20 Following her presentation and any questions and answers, attendees will take a short hike to Fort Cooper State Park’s Bat House to witness the swarm of bats exiting their house at sundown. It is advised that walkers wear sneakers or close-toed shoes. It’s truly a remarkable sight!  Florida's bats are the primary predators of night-flying insects, consuming millions of bugs each night. Even a small colony of just 100 bats can eat up to 200,000 insects in a single night or 65 million insect pests each year! It is estimated that there are over 5,000 bats residing in Fort Cooper’s Bat House. Pesticide-free, cost-free insect control!  Seating in the Rec Hall is very limited. Please reserve by calling the park office at ( 352) 726-0315.  There is a $3 per car state park entrance fee. The presentation is free.  Upcoming Activities at Fort Cooper State Park Save the dates for our annual Nights of Lights on December 13th and 14th, 2024.  Watch for more information about an upcoming Bat House Building Workshop that is being planned for November 9, 2024.

[whereintheworldismack]

As I mentioned, they went to Dresden for two days, leaving me all alone. We’ll not exactly alone. My super nice dog walker stayed with me. But some of the other sights they saw included the Opera house, the academy of fine arts also known as the lemon squeezer building and perhaps the

Most impressive was the swinger. It holds 5 different museums. The building complex was under construction, and the famous gardens were removed. But the buildings they could see were really stunning.

While they were there, there was a piano concert right in the square where they were staying. It was part of a summer series of performances. They said they ate a lot of ice cream because it was hot and Shari finally got her traditional German meal of schnitzel.

I sure hope mom takes me on one of these trips.

Benton-Walker, Roseanne A. Brown, Elise Bryant, Tracy Deonn, Desiree S. Evans, Isaac Fitzsimons, Lamar Giles, Jordan Ifueko, Leah Johnson, Amanda Joy, Kwame Mbalia, Tochi Onyebuchi, Shari B. Pennant, K. Arsenault Rivera, Julian Winters, and Ibi Zoboi. A girl who believes in UFOs; a boy who might have finally found his Prince Charming; a hopeful performer who dreams of being cast in her school’s production of The Sound of Music; a misunderstood magician of sorts with a power she doesn’t quite understand. These plotlines and many more compose the eclectic stories found within the pages of this dynamic, exciting, and expansive collection featuring exclusively Black characters. From contemporary to historical, fantasy to sci-fi, magical to realistic, and with contributions from a powerhouse list of self-proclaimed geeks and bestselling, award-winning authors, this life-affirming anthology celebrates and redefines the many facets of Blackness and geekiness—both in the real world and those imagined. https://www.instagram.com/p/CngShXSgn0d/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
