  This episode traumatized me so much. The fact that a father is the villain is the most horrific thing you could present to a kid.

  “There’s only one way to find out who’s the real one…”<br><br>I’m guessing the real one wouldn’t die immediately to the weed killer but the fake one would. 😂😂😂

  I always thought it was strange the real dad was stressing over the weed killer when it’s not gonna kill him

  One of the better goosebumps episodes tbh with such a scary premise. Plant experiments replacing your parent is a pretty dark premise.

  They should of done the book ending. These evil twin stories ruin the tension when one of them is immune to the weapon used by the protagonist

  This story was clearly based on Invasion of the Body Snatchers which has the same similar premise of a family members not being themselves and everyone trying to gaslight you that everything&apos;s normal. And it turning out that they&apos;ve been replaced by plants is actually pretty horrifying to a kid.

  &quot;Twisted Scissors&quot; is a play on the name of a famous 1980s rock band, &quot;Twisted Sister&quot;.

  The way Margaret got rid of the plant dad in the book was way more crazy, she didn&apos;t use weed killer, she hit him with an axe in the side/gut. It was brutal

  In the original book Stay Out of the Basement (1992) and in the old TV episode Stay Out of the Basement (1996) the father is called Michael Brewer, but in the new Disney Plus TV show Goosebumps: The Vanishing (2025) they changed his name to Anthony Brewer.
