Known at first as an author of comic novels, under the pseudonym Jovial Bob Stine (his first novel was titled How to Be Funny, 1978), Robert Lawrence Stine is today synonymous with "thrills". The author of the acclaimed series of novels for girls and boys Goosebumps arrives in Italy for the first time to meet his fans, from young readers to the most knowledgeable ones who have grown up with his series. From the TV series (the latest release in 2023) to the board game (1995) to the films (2015 and 2018), the prolific horror saga has raised (and scared!) entire generations of fans.

RL Stine, however, is not only the most read horror author for girls and boys. He has also written books such as Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Storybook. The Forest Of Enchantment and GI Joe: Find Your Fate.
