"It replicates the template and the atmosphere of the original, but it lacks invention and emotional investment."

Vulture
Vulture""Goosebumps 2" isn't a movie, exactly - it's a piñata of effects posing as a movie. By the end, there's nothing to do but sweep up the pieces."
—
Variety
Variety"It's pointless and bland. Like a bargain-basement Jumanji. The Z-list cast struggle."
—
The Times
The Times"A movie to leave playing in the background of a child's birthday party."
—
The New York Times
The New York Times"It ... just once, made me jump ever so slightly."
—
Stuff
Stuff"It should please younger fans of the books who will have no problem with its rudimentary storyline all too repetitive of the original. But it does feel like a missed opportunity to elevate the valuable franchise to bigger and more imaginative heights."

Hollywood Reporter
Hollywood Reporter"While not the equal of its predecessor, Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween is a worthy follow-up."
