Have you ever read the creepy, spooky Goosebumps novels as a kid? I know I did! I actually had shelves full of such books, and remember scaring myself silly right before bedtime with the fun yet freaky tales. 

Of course now, Goosebumps is not only a series of bestselling books, they're movies as well, loved by fans young and old, alike! If you've been waiting for Goosebumps 2, your wait is over!

Slappy the devious ventriloquist dummy returns to run amuck, in this second installment of the family-friendly franchise based on R.L. Stine’s beloved book series.

​Synopsis:
Be careful what you wish for. With their after school junk business, best friends Sonny and Sam hope to find treasure in other people’s trash. But when cleaning out the old Stine house, they open a locked book that frees a supernatural nightmare- Slappy!

OUR THOUGHTS: 
This, as we expected, was more fun than fright. (Although Slappy the dummy IS creepy to small kiddos.) This movie deals with friendship, treasure hunting as a group, and even struggles with school. Of course there are plenty of things that cause scares and keep eyes wide open at night. Don't worry, though, as none of these scary scenes will linger after the movie is over. It's definitely MUCH more fun than frightening. This is also very mild as far as content goes. There's not any sex, no substance abuse, no extreme violence or gore, making this the perfect film for the whole family to enjoy. 
 
GOOSEBUMPS 2 has a run time of approximately 120 minutes and is rated PG for scary creature action and images, some thematic elements, rude humor and language.
