Review of Ghost Stories (2018) by Rebecca31 — 22 Apr 2018

Entertaining, surprisingly funny and spine-chilling. Ghost stories is a unique take on a modern horror story. Not just a parade of cheap jump scares but an interesting story wrapped in tension and guaranteed to give most of you at least one fright.

Professor Goodman (Andy Nyman) specialises in debunking phony psychics. For his whole life he has been a sceptic but now he must investigate three apparently unexplainable hauntings. Each story is scarier than the last so buckle up for a terrifying horror movie that will have your heart in your mouth. How rarely do we get a good horror and Ghost Stories is a refreshing take on a ghost story. Rather than focus on the never-ending jump scares it works at a story you become invested in and builds the tension in a way most horror movies can’t anymore. It’s got it all, frights, laughs and a well told story. Thoroughly enjoyable and highly recommended.
