Rob Letterman and Hilary Winston, executive producers of the Disney+ series, also discuss how comedy helped them find their scares and the potential of an anthology crossover event.

Schwimmer emphasized that Goosebumps: The Vanishing isn't just about scares, but also about the difficulties of family, growth, and unresolved trauma. "The story moves in such a way where, in the first couple of episodes, you feel how grounded this family is and you know the relationships are solid and loving," Schwimmer said.

In the new series, Schwimmer plays dad to fraternal twins, Jayden Bartles and Sam McCarthy. “Goosebumps: The Vanishing” becomes available Jan. 10 on Disney+ and Hulu.
