What follows is the new version of the Books section for the Goosebumps HorrorLand page, which I added to said page after getting all the bugs worked out of it, replacing the original "prose" version. Unfortunately, someone eventually saw fit to remove this version and replace it with a blander, "basic" version, as well as removing the future books and most of the sources. While I have spoken with this person and eventually agreed with their reasonings, I have chosen to preserve the original version here, covering the first twenty books.

But when she and her friend Sabrina Mason visit the abandoned stable at Tumbledown Farms, they find that the mask has a deeper history than suspected. The only way for Carly Beth to put the past behind her is to discover the stable's strange secret, even if that means putting the mask on one more time.

Goosebumps HorrorLand Second Arc: Books 13-19
edit
Online bookstores have posted a listing for more upcoming Goosebumps HorrorLand books, beginning with "When The Ghost Dog Howls", set to be released on January 1, 2010.[3] They have provided the following synopsis, implying that the series has been extended to include nineteen books with a new seven-book story arc:
Each eerie adventure of the next seven-book arc begins with a trip to the Chiller House, a gift shop only found in HorrorLand. Kids are invited to take a little horror home with them and given a souvenir and a miniature Horror. At home, the kids experience wild things with their "free" gift, while the glowing, menacing Horror keeps an eye on the fun. When it's time for their payment, the Horror takes them back to shopkeeper Jonathan Chiller.
Unlucky book #13 kicks off an entirely new type of terror that will keep you guessing and quaking until book #19.

When the park's Chiller House store offers Andy a free souvenir he doesn't ask any questions - despite the shopkeeper saying he'd have to pay "next time you see me"... or that the souvenir hound's tooth is said to be haunted. He thinks it's worth the risk to have a dog's tooth that grants wishes, but when he hears howling in the night and Marnie starts behaving oddly, he thinks again about the gift from HorrorLand.

Notes: Slappy New Year was also the title of one of the cancelled Goosebumps Gold books[20], raising the possibility that R.L. Stine may try to recreate the other cancelled Gold books.
- Amazon.com and Scholastic Rights and Co-Editions detail completely different plots for the novel; Stine confirmed the plot from the Amazon version as the correct one on his Twitter page on June 16, 2010.[21]
- This is the first HorrorLand book to have a companion reissue that is itself a sequel (to The Curse of the Mummy's Tomb, the fifth reissue).

| Plot: Mickey and Amanda have been put in charge of their vacationing neighbors' cat, Bella. But when she escapes from the house and disappears, Amanda has an idea to replace the cat with a look-alike from the local pet store Cat Heaven. When the owner refuses to sell them the cat they pick out, they decide to steal it... but unfortunately, the cats at the store are more than what they seem.[28]
