Fear Street is a
teenage horror fiction series written by American author
R. L. Stine, starting in 1989. In 1995, a series of books inspired by the Fear Street series, called
Ghosts of Fear Street, was created for younger readers, and were more like the Goosebumps books in that they featured paranormal adversaries (ghosts, vampires, monsters, aliens, etc.) and sometimes had
twist endings.
