Today KaBoom! with BOOM! Studios has announced the upcoming middle grade horror series, Just Beyond. Created by Goosebumps and Fear Street legend R.L. Stone, unfortunately doesn’t make it to shelves until May 2020, but it promises some good things. Artist’s Kelly and Nichole Matthews are twin sisters and freelance artists. The series is set in the forest preserve at Happy Landings, where things get creepy when the Walden family comes across some body-snatching aliens.
Here’s the official synopsis:
Family camping trips are supposed to be fun, but for the Walden family, they’re an absolute nightmare! After a creepy, unidentified bird attacks their mom in the forest, Parker and Annie find themselves face to face with two strange creatures that suddenly enter the kids’ brains and take control of their bodies. Can Parker and Annie break loose of this horrific control and convince their family of what’s happening, or will the creatures take over their lives for good?
R.L. Stine seems excited to be onboard:
“I’m not an outdoors person. When I’m in the woods or out in the country, I think of all the creatures who live there, and I instantly begin to think of horrifying encounters.” said writer R.L. Stine. “This story goes JUST BEYOND my normal imagining: What if you were camping out–and you were invaded by creatures from another planet?”
