Curly is the villainous mascot of the Goosebumps Fanclub. He has not yet appeared in any books, but instead, he is a reoccurring figure on Goosebumps merchandise and book covers.
Appearance[]
Originally, Curly was a tall, skeleton with orange sneakers, a red cap, and a blue handkerchief. He was redesigned later on to make him more colorful. He was given a pink Mohawk, blue shades, a orange handkerchief and purple flipflops. He has kept this core design, with some slight alterations ever since. With the exception being on the live show, where he was now wearing a red bowtie and Sunday hat.
Personality[]
Curly has a very laid back and chill personality, even if he can get frustrated easily. Curly is also addicted to Horror-Punch (A drink at HorrorLand), and SlimePizza (a meal from HorrorLand). He loves reading Goosebumps books and watching the TV show late at night. Strangely, even though he's obsessed with horror-themed children's novels, he is rather cowardly.
