“They seem to join with a host,” says Schwimmer in a voiceover as his face appears onscreen, framed in a splashing black liquid. “It’s for the greater good.”
Goosebumps: The Vanishing follows twins Cece (Jayden Bartels) and Devin Brewer (Sam McCarthy) as they are sent to spend the summer in Gravesend, Brooklyn with their divorced dad (Schwimmer). A threat is stirring, and they quickly realize that dark secrets are among them, triggering a chain of events that unravel a profound mystery. As they delve into the unknown, Cece, Devin and their friends find themselves entangled in the chilling tale of four teenagers who mysteriously vanished in 1994.
The eight-episode season features Schwimmer as Anthony Brewer, a former botany professor who has immersed himself in science and mystery. Ana Ortiz, Elijah M. Cooper, Galilea La Salvia, Francesca Noel and Stony Blyden also star.
Fans of Stine’s popular book series will recognize elements from Stay Out of the Basement, The Haunted Car, Monster Blood, The Girl Who Cried Monster, The Ghost Next Door and Welcome to Camp Nightmare, all of which served as inspiration for the sophomore season.
Developed by Nicholas Stoller and Rob Letterman, the showrunner is Hilary Winston. They serve as EPs with Neal H. Moritz, Scholastic Entertainment’s Iole Lucchese and Caitlin Friedman, Pavun Shetty, Conor Welch, Erin O’Malley, Karl Frankenfield and James Eagan.
