    Scary Stories is a wonderful celebration of Alvin Schwartz's macabre works. Engaging and thought-provoking, without using nostalgia as a crutch.

    An interesting documentary about my favorite childhood books. Not only did I learn more about the author, illustrator, and the folklore on which these stories are based, but this documentary makes a good point on censorship and children's imaginations. I have so many good memories of reading these stories with my friends as a kid. Now, I just need to find where my old books are...

    I think people thought this was a movie of the stories..its a synopsis of the book and how it came to be, about the author. And its great! So fascinating, great documentary about how a childhood classic came to be! I For a trip down memory lane, and some things I didn't know about the stories.. this movie will have best of both worlds!

    I grew up on this book, and was SOOO excited to see it in theaters. It really did keep me on the edge of my seat and really got me, but some of the graphics were kinda funny. I still absolutely loved this movie!!!

    Had a few good jump scares. Good story line. Wish it had more monsters.

    This movie was a fun thrill ride, good pacing and storytelling, a few jump scares, and plenty of dark spooky atmospheric imagery!

    The Spooky Visuals were Ok at Best, the Story itself was not so Great. Meant more for Kids.
