"Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween" tries its hardest, but is never quite able to recapture the thrills (or heart) that made the original a surprise success. This is in no small part due to it being noticeably lower-budget than the 2015 film, and suffering a rushed, patchy narrative. Although it does thankfully benefit from Jack Black in another scene-stealing turn as R.L. Stine and a few engaging sequences.

As it stands, "Haunted Halloween" serves best as a weekend rental for families with young children... but it's not really worth rushing out to buy. I give it a middle-of-the-road 2.5 out of 5. (Rounding up to 3 for the rating system on this website).

Other mistake: After Sarah gets Slappy into the locker he could see Tyler from inside but the problem is that the angle and the height of the vents are wrong for that perspective.

Trivia: Originally, this sequel was going to include all three main characters from the first film. However, due to scheduling conflicts with actors Jack Black, Dylan Minette and Odeya Rush, none were available and the script was re-written to focus on new characters. Black was later able to eventually free up enough time to appear in an extended cameo role, with several short scenes in the film's second half.
