R.L. Stine's JUST BEYOND Graphic Novel Is Getting Series Adaptation for Disney+
Just Beyond is a horror/comedy graphic novel series created by Seth Grahame-Smith (Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter), written by R.L. Stine (Goosebumps), and published by BOOM! Studios. Now, Grahame-Smith has received an eight episode series order for this best-selling series from Disney+. This is sure to be a treat for many young fans of horror and mischief. Grahame-Smith released the following statement:
“I grew up watching Twilight Zone reruns and the original Amazing Stories with my parents,” said Seth Grahame-Smith. “I've always wanted to make a genre anthology series that families could enjoy together, and do it in a way that delivered for kids and adults alike. R.L. Stine has been a part of millions of childhoods, and Disney+ has already proven itself as a place that knows how to make high-quality shows for the whole family. I couldn't be more excited to be working with both of them.”
Stine added:
Back in the day, we had a Goosebumps HorrorLand attraction at Walt Disney World. It was one of the thrills of my life. Now I'm thrilled to be back with Disney for the TV series based on my graphic novels. Writing Just Beyond for BOOM! Studios has been a joy from the beginning, and I'm so happy to have the wonderful screenwriter Seth Grahame-Smith bring the series to life on Disney+. How lucky can I be?
