The newest thrill ride from Goosebumps author R.L Stine will keep parents and kids on the edge of their seats this Halloween season when R. L. Stine's The Haunting Hour: Don’t Think About It comes exclusively to DVD September 4, 2007 from Universal Studios Home Entertainment and The Hatchery LLC. This movie features a sizzling young cast that tweens and their families will love, including Emily Osment (“Hannah Montana,” Spy Kids), Cody Linley (“Hannah Montana,” Hoot) and Brittany Curran (“The Suite Life of Zack & Cody” and one of kidzworld.com’s Five Faces to Watch in 2007), plus the quintessential movie villain Tobin Bell (the Saw franchise).

In addition, Emily Osment makes her music debut, singing the film’s theme song “I Don’t Think About It.” The song, along with a never-before-seen music video, will be available on the DVD. R. L. Stine's The Haunting Hour: Don’t Think About It kicks off a series of spooky and suspenseful thrillers for the entire family based on the work of one of the world’s best-selling children’s authors.

We recently had the pleasure to sit down with Emily and ask her a couple questions about the dvd, Hannah Montana, her brother, and what she does during her down time.


Now in The Haunting Hour you character is a goth, which is quite different than your character Lily on Hannah Montana. Did you enjoy being able to play someone with a different style sense? And how was it overall working on The Haunting Hour in comparison to Hannah Montana?

Emily: Lilly and Cassie are two very different characters. Playing different roles is what I want to do and I’m always looking for that. The differences between working on Hannah Montana and working on the Haunting Hour are vast simply because one is a TV show and the other one is a movie. We shoot “Hannah” on one sound stage all the time. Movies are shot in many different locations. TV shows have very regular hours. Film work can be practically any time, day and night.

What did you like best about filming this project?

Emily: I got to live in Pittsburgh for six weeks. I really like going new places and filming in new places and meeting new people.
