Fear Street is basically Goosebumps for teenagers--similar ideas and themes, but more violence and oblique sexual references. There's also a weird backstory about the curse on the Fier family (later renamed the Fear family), and how that curse spread to the town they lived in and the street named after them.

Goosebumps was more funny-scary, as I remember - not quite a parody, but it didn't take itself too seriously. It almost always involved something supernatural or not too realistic.

Fear Street wasn't so funny/parody-ish, and didn't always involve the supernatural, though some of them did. A lot of the regular books (the ones that weren't part of a spinoff or a "super special" were just murder mysteries.

And there was the historical spinoff series about the Fier/Fear family, which I liked despite some glaring historical errors (it started off with someone being executed by burning for witchcraft in Colonial America, ugh). I liked family sagas, so it was still appealing.

ETA - also, despite the racy (for a middle schooler) covers that kept me from buying a few of them because I didn't want my mom to see them, there wasn't really much sex in Fear Street. Just a lot of making out, and occasionally someone thinking someone else has a "great body" or something like that.

wait, what? How'd he fail that badly when there's documentation that said there were no witches burnt at Colonial American stakes?

No editor? Maybe hanging wasn't dramatic enough (and you can't use an anagram of it as a character's name).
