Interactions between friends can be funny there and then, but the over-dramatized sequences give off a corny vibe. Rush’s Auggie also provides a good deal of banter, with Colletti’s Stella being the main driving force in pursuing the mystery of the haunted tales. Of the bunch, Zajur’s Chuck is hilarious, offering plenty of zingers during his onscreen time. Our main cast is tolerable, providing moments of comedic enjoyment. Taking this book home with her ends up not being the best idea, kicking off a wave of nightmares the group must try and overcome before time runs out for them. In the house, Stella comes across a book that belonged to Sarah that contains (you guessed it), scary stories she wrote. She has long since passed away, remaining a folk tale among the townsfolk. When the friends decide to go to a haunted house, Stella tells Ramón about an evil girl named Sarah who was supposedly responsible for killing children.

Soon after the film’s opening, we are introduced to the rest of our cast, namely Stella’s friends. This focus on Halloween extends itself to that of main protagonist Stella ( Zoe Colletti), who adores all things horror and creepy related. From pumpkins to the cozy autumn air, to the tune of Donovan’s “Season of the Witch”, we are given a fun reminder how this is a Halloween themed flick. The film wastes no time diving right into Halloween nostalgia.
SCARY STORIES TO TELL IN THE DARK CAST 2 SERIES
Taking the classic short stories from the beloved children’s book series by Alvin Schwartz, producer Guillermo del Toro, director André Øvredal, and writers Dan and Kevin Hageman create a mythos surrounding these cursed tales. This is a central idea that Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark attempts to focus on. The Pitch: Stories offer us an incredible power they can bring good into our lives, or they can bring pain.
