The originals!
I remember these books as a kid. My parents always hated them because of the pictures being to horrible. Now the new versions have toned down pictures and are not as good. These books are the originals, and are hard to find , even harder to find brand new. Better get them before they are gone!Read full review...

Close, but no cigar.
It's the same stories and art! BUT it's not the same book. Smaller size and tissue paper thin pages. Super cool that they come as a set at a reasonable price, but if you're looking for the originals this is not them.Read full review...

Very Pleased
I was very pleased with my purchase. It was exactly what I expected and it came in a timely manner, plus it had the original artwork. I remember being freaked out by Scary Stories to Tell in The Dark when I was little, so when my 8 year old son came home from school talking about these scary books with spooky pictures I knew exactly what he was talking about. I just had to order them for him right away. The artwork is just as scary as I remember it. Scary Stories To Tell in The Dark.....scaring the crap out of kids since 1981 lol. Read full review...

Nostalgia
Ordered these books because I remember how much I loved reading them in elementary school. They arrived quickly and were sealed and brand new. Passed on these books to my 6 year old niece, she loves them as much as I did. Read full review...

This is the series the movie is based on...
There are very few types of books I like to collect, this series is one of them. Since my elementary school days I have been trying to collect them.
Now I have them and they will make excellent reading time for me and my kids as they get older.
I can't wait to take them camping for marshmallows and hotdogs later on over the summer!!Read full review...

Got it just in time for Halloween.
I got these books just in time for Halloween. I personally believe that the original illustrations is what made these books the best scary story books for young kids. It just adds to the thrill of reading these books by flash light. My kids couldn’t believe how great they were and couldn’t put them down till they finished all 3 books in one sitting.

Strong childhood memories revisited.
Out of all scary media I have observed in my whole life, these books still hold the top position for being the most horrific, haunting and lasting horror media Ive seen as far as books go. Unique and powerful art, classic folk inspired and strong stories. A true masterpiece.Read full review...

I Love the old art!
Once I heard they had replaced some of the old art with new soft images I just had to purchase these. I have read these books ever since I was in elementary school; I am in college now. It has been years, and I still feel chills go up my spine with some of these stories.Read full review...

Great condition, but very slighly flawed
The books are in great condition. Brand new as far as I can tell, but this seems like a batch where all the covers were attached askew. You can tell from the pictures if you look closely. Still great for the price!Read full review...
