[T]he movie faithfully re-creates the peak moments of half a dozen of Schwartz’ most popular stories...
Variety
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
By couching all of the original shorts in the over-arching small-town kids' story, this adaptation short-shrifts the shorts. There's not enough of them here, and that makes them feel sketchy.

Creative Screenwriting
Whenever SCARY STORIES is prioritizing the scary stories, it becomes a lively bit of supernatural-slasher hokum.

Rating: 3.5/5 --
The plot is fun, the stories are creepy, and I enjoyed every minute of it. But just as is often true, the books were better than the movie.

Mama's Geeky
If you're thinking this seems to be a list of horror clichés and stereotypes, that's not an uncharitable suspicion. The filmmakers' skill rests in the way these stereotypes are reanimated in a narrative that contains a surprising number of layers.

Proof, once again, that a creaky floorboard, judiciously used, is worth more than any expensive digital trickery.
