Trailer
Why watch the movie Nightbooks?
"During the 1980s and 1990s, cinema saw an explosion of young (and even children's, in some cases) stories that mix fantasy elements with horror. 'The Witches' Convention' is one of the most remembered films, but there's still 'Hocus Pocus', 'The Nightmare Before Christmas' and even 'Beetlejuice: The Ghosts Have Fun'. And Netflix seems determined to revive this tradition in the 2020s. One example is the friendly 'Nightbooks'. The feature film follows an obsessed boy with scary stories who ends up trapped in his apartment by a young evil witch. From there, director David Yarovesky ('Brightburn', 'The Hive') mixes 'Home Alone' with 'The Witches' Convention' to show this boy trying to escape the clutches of evil."
