Stine was born in Columbus, Ohio, the oldest of three children, to a homemaker mother and a shipping clerk father.

He graduated from Ohio State University in 1965 and moved to New York City to become a writer. He wrote dozens of joke books for kids under the pen name Jovial Bob Stine and created the humor magazine Bananas, where he worked for many years with Nickelodeon. He wrote some movie novelizations and many gamebooks at this time, too. In 1990, Stine teamed up with Parachute Press to create Fear Street. In 1992, Stine attempted at writing comedy by creating a series called Space Cadets which lasted only three books. Later in the year, Stine and Parachute went on to launch Goosebumps.
