To be fair, Last House is but one of many credits Ellsworth has to his name. The scribe worked in television for years, penning scripts for series like "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" and "Animorphs", before breaking into movies in a big way with Red Eye, which starred Rachel McAdams. Following that was Disturbia, the film that established Shia LaBeouf as a big-screen star. Then came Last House, and most recently, the remake of Red Dawn, which MGM is sitting on until it sorts its financial situation out.

The story for "Goosebumps" is still unknown. Neal Moritz (Fast and the Furious) is producing, while Columbia Pictures will distribute. The books are apparently second only to the "Harry Potter" series in total sales, which means there could be big money awaiting "Goosebumps" when it finally arrives...

Have you - or one of your kids - ever read a "Goosebumps" book before?
