So glad this set was released. I grew up reading these gems and am delighted to see that they've been faithfully restored to their former glory. All of the original artwork is included, unlike the previously released set that was somewhat sanitized. I enjoyed these books immensely in elementary school and now looking upon them as an adult, I still find them entertaining. I purchased this for my nephew and he too is enjoying them. Fair warning, yes, the images tend to favor the macabre and even the grotesque (google image for a taste). Having said that, know your audience. You may want to start by reading these stories to your children and selectively showing them the artwork after you've gauged their tolerance.

Give them a whirl, if you dare....
I am furious. I have just found out that this COWARDLY publishing company has taken what was, for many of us, a classic work of spooky children's literature and swapped out the Stephen Gammell illustrations for saccharine sweet, homogenized, overly sweet, not-even-remotely-spooky illustrations by Brett Helquist.

Many of us grew up with the Scary stories to tell in the Dark collection by Alvin Schwartz and were haunted by the gorgeous and creepy artwork of Stephen Gammell. Stephen's artwork is part of what made these books so haunting, so notorious. And now they have brutally altered these books beyond reprieve.

Not only did the cowards quietly change the artwork, after standing by the artistic integrity of this collection for thirty years, bu they do it for the thirtieth anniversary edition on-ward!

To change this is like changing the original Dr. Seuss Illustrations or the original Alice in Wonderland illustrations. it's just not right. This was a shameful movie by a cowardly company giving in to long standing pressure that the pictures were "too scary."

Brett Helquist is not a bad artist. But he was used here as a pawn for an overly politically correct move to make a collection of scary stories "tamer" and "more acceptable." A move that would have insulted the likes of Ray Bradbury.

If there is any integrity left at all they will restore the Stephen Gammell illustrations.
I was very disappointed to find that the art in this set is completely different from what they used to have. All of the artwork has been replaced with super generic art that you could find anywhere, instead of the wonderful illustrations that were more chilling that the stories themselves! I have no idea why they would do such a thing.
This is a review for the 2017 reprint of the "Scary Stories To Tell in the Dark" trilogy.

A few years back when the original Stephen Gammell illustrations were removed from these books, my heart sank. Newer generations would never know the absolute terror that waited for them between each page thanks to Gammell's nightmarish art... until now. Scholastic listened to the outcry from all the adults who grew up trying to avoid the empty look from the ghost with hollow eye sockets in "The Haunted House" or the cobweb-ridden corpse of the tragically trapped woman in "The Bride."

The stories and illustrations are just as enjoyable and spooktacular as they were when the books were first published. Welcome back, Schwartz and Gammell!
I was sceptical about purchasing this item after reading countless reviews of people recieving the reprint which had updated, bland art, but it I looked at the dates of the reviews from 2016 as opposed to reviews from 2018 and the reviews from 2018 showed that people were now recieving the books that had the original art as opposed to 2016 where people were getting the updated version. From a customer perspective it was very confusing deciding which reviews to trust because one says that the books do not include the original art and some say do have them. After deciding to purchase the item regardless I was very relieved to see the beloved books I used to love reading. In conclusion people recieved the updated art a couple years ago and left bad reviews because of that, but it seems that whoever is responsible for selling these books responded to the backlash and began selling the books with the original art that we know and love from our chilhoods.
These are NOT the original drawings. The drawings or illustrations were half the fun! They were often scarier than the stories themselves. This sucks.

Picture one is what I got, picture two is what it used to be. Please warn people that this is not the original artist and show a sampling of the inside of the books. I gather that's why it's not advertised, though. Some people like me wouldn't have spent (wasted) the money on it if they had known the original artist wasn't used.
THE ORIGINAL ART IS BACK!!! I ordered this collection without reading the reviews (big mistake) so, when I saw that everybody was complaining about the books NOT having the original art I was so disappointed, but it was too late to cancel so I decided to return them in arrival, but to my surprise I happily realized that the collection they sent includes the original art that everybody loves!!! So don't hesitate, buy it, it's worth it. Beautiful books, beautiful art, total satisfaction 😊
If I had seen that the art had been changed I wouldn't have even purchased this. I'm very disappointed. The original books had such great, creepy artwork. This version has really generic, cartoony pictures.
