Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 2.5/4 --
The genre tropes are all alive and well and Scary Stories delivers them with élan but the dispiriting ending hangs over everything like a pall.

3 stars out of 4 -- From the astonishing opening montage featuring Donovan's SEASON OF THE WITCH to crawling spiders and stalker-y ghouls, the bite-sized thrills of SCARY STORIES pack plenty of jolts...
RogerEbert.com
These and other spooky specters are memorably incarnated, to be sure. But I'm pretty easy to scare, and I can't say I found the movie, directed by Norway's Andre Ovredal of 2010's excellent Trollhunter, all that scary.

Phoenix Magazine
Ovredal respects the original illustrations of Stephen Gammell, whose hand is visible in the grotesquely contorted expressions of a scarecrow and in a trollish woman with a face like papier-mâché.
New York Times
You can practically see the impassioned pencil shadings in a fleshy ghoul like the Pale Lady, who slowly stalks the red-lit hallways of a hospital before she hugs her victim to death.
Hollywood Reporter
Good bones are what keep Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark upright.

Rating: 3/4 --
The tension builds, the special effects are gruesome, and most of all the film is fun for both young and old moviegoers.
