Gremlins’ Writer Chris Columbus Turning His “House of Secrets” Books into a Series for Disney+

[Dead2009]

The writer of Gremlins and The Goonies, and director of Home Alone, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, and The Christmas Chronicles 2, Chris Columbus has set up his next project, with THR reporting that Columbus will be adapting his House of Secrets novels into a series for Disney+. The three novels, which debuted in 2013, were co-written by Ned Vizzini.

Columbus has referred to the book series as being a “cousin” to The Goonies.

In House of Secrets…

“Siblings Brendan, Eleanor and Cordelia Walker aren’t pleased when their family relocates to a creepy Victorian house once owned by an occult novelist, Denver Kristoff. By the time the Walkers realize that their new neighbor has sinister plans for them, they’re trapped in the magical house, traveling through the fantastical intertwined universes of Kristoff’s novels.”

Columbus is developing the Disney+ series via his 26th Street Pictures.
