Fun Facts: The film series was going to be a theatrical release (with one coming out every year) but that changed when their original studio Fox was bought by Disney.

The horror books that appeared in the beginning are by the author named ‘Robert Lawrence’ which is R. L. Stine’s real name. 

There is a village called Shadyville, Ohio in real life.

The movie was filmed back to back from March to September 2019

Summary: In Shadyville, Ohio in 1994, a group of teens discovers an ancient curse when a couple of people get slaughtered.

The Review: It’s Scream with the supernatural genre thrown into the mix, yet it is a lot of fun (especially for the slasher fans).
