Review
I’ve always loved creepy stories; it doesn’t matter what age they’re aimed at. A good creepy story should freak you out no matter how old you are. Nickelodeon began sharing scary stories on Are You Afraid of the Dark? back in the 90s, and they’ve got brand new ones to share now.
These tales about the Shadowman are definitely not for little ones who don’t normally watch scary shows! You know your kids best. Some kids are ready for scary stuff when they’re 8 and others when they’re 16! If you were a kid in the 90s, you probably watched the original ones, so even if you’ve got kids that aren’t ready for this, I’m sure you’d love them! The actors who make up the new Midnight Society are very good and very convincing! They make the stories seem much more real. I definitely think that these are must owns not just for original fans, but also for new fans! Check out these scary but fun tales!
