Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark Comes To Life In New Eight Minute Featurette

The classic illustrations by Stephen Gammell in the book “Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark” terrified multiple generations. In a new 8-minute featurette from producer Guillermo del Toro and director André Øvredal‘s new movie, we watch as the illustrations are turned into disturbingly realistic creatures by Spectral Motion.

The featurette also reveals a look behind the scenes of Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark which is now playing in theaters nationwide.
