Parachute Publishing

Parachute Press is a division of Parachute Publishing, a packager of book series for children and teenagers. The four women listed as the company's principals are all themselves authors of children's books (among others), and Jane Stine is married to R. L. Stine. The press first gained notice with the 1989 publication of R. L. Stine's Fear Street series, followed in 1992 by the release of the first of Stine's Goosebumps series.

Since that time the Parachute "umbrella" has expanded, and Parachute Press (as Parachute Publishing) has become a division of Parachute Properties, an "international company that comprises children’s, teen, and adult publishing, entertainment, and consumer products". Most of Parachute's literary products are produced under license for other publishing houses including HarperCollins.

Titles
Parachute still produces series written by its most successful author, R.L. Stine, including Dangerous Girls, Dangerous Girls 2, Mostly Ghostly and ''Beware! R.L. Stine Picks His Favorite Scary Stories''. In 2003 all rights to his most famous series, Goosebumps, were acquired by Scholastic Corporation.
