Larry Karaszewski and Scott Alexander have been lined up to script Columbia Pictures' Goosebumps adaptation.

The duo's big screen credits include Ed Wood, Man On The Moon and The People vs Larry Flynt.

Neal Moritz and Deborah Forte are producing the children's horror project.

Columbia's feature will be the first movie adaptation of the popular R.L. Stine novels. The series comprises more than 50 books and often mimics classic films such as Night Of The Living Dead and The Twilight Zone.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, producers are planning to cast a selection of unknown youngsters in the lead roles, in the style of the Harry Potter franchise.
