Goosebumps: A Night in Terror Tower Game

The item is a 'Goosebumps: A Night in Terror Tower Game' board game. The box is predominantly black with vibrant illustrations characteristic of the 'Goosebumps' series. The main artwork features an imposing grey stone tower, possibly a castle, with two terrified children (a boy and a girl) reacting to what appears to be a ghostly green figure emanating from the tower's base. The 'Goosebumps' logo is prominent in bright green, dripping slime-like letters. The top right corner has a red stamp with 'READING is SCREAM!'. Text on the box includes 'A NIGHT IN TERROR TOWER GAME' and 'Roll the Dice and Run for Your Life!'. A small red 'MB' logo indicates Milton Bradley as the manufacturer, and it states 'Ages 7 and Up' and '2 to 4 Players'. The box shows visible signs of wear along the edges and corners, suggesting it is a used or older item. There are scuffs and some white marks, particularly near the top edge, indicating surface degradation. The overall aesthetic is designed to evoke suspense and horror, aligning with the Goosebumps book series. Part of a yellow book, likely another 'Goosebumps' title, is visible on the left, with text 'BEWARE OF THE MOON...' and 'AND THE HEADLESS GHOST!', further confirming the franchise connection. This board game appears to be from the 1990s, given the peak popularity of the Goosebumps series and the visual style of board games from that era. The printing quality seems to be standard for mass-produced board games of its time.
