Goosebumps shows that the beloved children’s series’ scares work in virtual reality

When I saw that there was a Goosebumps mobile phone virtual reality demo at GamesBeat 2015, I didn’t go in with high expectations. I am a bit too old to have grown up off of the books, and given that the Goosebumps movie coming out later this week looks like yet another awkward Hollywood license grab, my prejudices were tilted against this game.

The funny thing about prejudices is that they always get proven wrong.
