Between 2020 and 2021, I’ve spent a great deal of time thinking about children’s horror. It started with my Nightworms blog post about the scary books that I grew up reading. I discussed classics like Goosebumps and Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, but I also talked about books that I had thought were obscure—that is, until other readers confirmed that they too had been raised on Paul Zindel’s Reef of Death or J. B. Stamper’s Tales for the Midnight Hour. In April, to honor children’s horror, I also posted a series of Instagram photos that highlighted books from my childhood, titles like The Dark-Thirty: Southern Tales of the Supernatural and Bloody Waters: Terrorizing Shark Tales. Once again, I was greeted by more enthusiastic horror fans who had also read these books when they were kids.

Those two occurrences led to so many questions…

Where Were My Fellow Kid Horror Fans When I Was Young?

Eerie, Indiana: okay, was trying to be Goosebumps just a thing back then?

Eerie Indiana the complete series

A boy and his pal investigate the eccentricities of their town and its odd residents. The series played like headlines from a supermarket tabloid, with plots involving werewolves, a canine revolt and Elvis.

Starring
Omri Katz

Julie Condra
Jason Marsden

Awsome series. I loved it back then and i still do. Goosebumps is cool but before that we had eerie indiana and it was the best.

God, I miss the golden days when there was 20+ different cartoon shows and they were all on repeat.

Only live action I watched was Goosebumps and Eerie Indiana. I couldn't get into the Disney live action stuff, it just wasn't entertaining enough.

Dude, forgot about Eerie Indiana. You remember So Weird?

I see your Goosebumps and Are You Afraid of the Dark intros and raise you the Eerie Indiana Intro.

Currently watching “Eerie, Indiana” with the whole fam. Can’t believe I missed this as a kid!

If your crew is into “Goosebumps”, “Are You Afraid of the Dark”, “Monster Squad”, “Silver Bullet”, and “Goonies”... then you will all love this.

to be fair, the main reason you haven't heard this term is because i made it up, and have mostly only used it in private conversations
i'm thinking of writing something about it someday so i can be a famous term-coiner though lol

How two anthology shows made a new generation of horror fans https://t.co/9Jx6YFtr8Q via @syfy

There were plenty of horror anthologies in the '80s, but shows like Tales From the Crypt were essentially R-rated and obviously aimed at grown-ups. It wasn't until the ‘90s that TV started catering to kids who liked to be spooked, as Are You Afraid of the Dark? and Goosebumps helped create a new generation of horror fans. Just in time for Halloween, and to celebrate the shows' 30th and 25th anniversaries — respectively — we're gathering around the campfire, and submitting for the approval of the Midnight Society, a tale of two horror shows and the golden age of kids' horror. Beware — you're in for a scare.

Goosebumps was ok. Are you Afraid of the Dark? was good. But Eerie, Indiana was in a whole other league. Maybe it's because at 13, you start realizing how all adults are a little mad. Anyone else with fond memories of this show?

Are You Afraid of the Dark?

The original series aired at just the right time in my youth when I had a vividly active imagination, so several episodes stuck with me for weeks after. Nothing on TV has quite hit the same way since.

Does anyone else remember Eerie, Indiana? in my (totally unbiased and not at all formed when I was around 8 years old) opinion it’s probably the best horror show for children, surpassing Are You Afraid of the Dark and Goosebumps. it only ran for one season (I didn’t watch the 1998 spin-off) because it was too good to last. Every episode was so creative and it balanced humor with some genuinely creepy atmosphere. Please understand all I’m saying here is from a child’s perspective because I haven’t seen it in forever, but isn’t a child’s perspective what matters? Still, if I find the episodes online I’ll rewatch it this October.

Considering I grew up with Are You Afraid of the Dark, Stephen King, Eerie Indiana, X-Files, and goosebumps is it any wonder I grew up to be a horror fanatic.

Happy Summerween! We'll be watching throwback scary shows each week this month as a group, then discussing them as well as the book The Witches (by Roald Dahl) in the last meeting of the month, July 28th.

We will be watching some of the following:
- Goosebumps
- Are You Afraid of the Dark
- Creeped Out
- Eerie Indiana
- Tales from the Crypt

On your own recognizance:
- Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark (books or 2019 movie)

We'll post a the link to the meeting in the comments right before the event. Unless we put together something else, it'll be streamed through the Kosmi website, so it won't require a download or login, and it's free.

Hope to see you there!

This Horror Club episode we discuss "Polaroid", the 2019 film directed by Lars Klevberg. And as we run through the weird urban legends of Polaroids, we also bring up… Locke & Key, Horse Girl, Eerie, Indiana, Are You Afraid of the Dark?, Madelaine Petsch, throuples are all the rage, walking around with a kerosene lantern, there’s a lot of loose ends to this movie, Mitch Pileggi, predicts the future, there's a lot of homicidal kids, the whole scarf thing, Beta-test from the 40’s, ping pong, given my experience with photography and fire, lamp placement, there’s a deeper level to this that I never picked up on before, a lot of things in this movie that come up - that there's no payoff for, conspiracy theory, Tupperware, Instax, Goosebumps, fetchin' collarbones, somebody in this scenario needs to be creeped out by this - ‘cause I am, CGI, that noise, Joe Hill, a brandable name, surely it's not meant to be this dark, a movie so underdeveloped that you’ll want to shake it, Grace Zabriskie, it’s built into human DNA, in the darkroom, giving Georgie something to do, The Mummy and the Island of the Samoas.
