NIGHTBOOKS debuting on September 15th on Netflix Just in Time for the Halloween Season

Netflix has your Halloween movie season covered with this its new family friendly horror-suspense film NIGHTBOOKS. Scary story fan Alex must tell a spine-tingling tale every night — or stay trapped with his new friend in a wicked witch's magical apartment unless they come up with a plan and find a way to escape.

Alex (Winslow Fegley) is a creative boy with a strong passion for writing scary stories. But when he's labeled weird and rejected for what he likes, he swears he'll never write again. That’s when an evil witch (Krysten Ritter), captures him in her magical apartment in New York City and demands that he tell her a new tale every night if he wants to stay alive. Trapped inside with Lenore, the witch’s spiteful cat watching his every move, Alex meets Yasmin (Lidya Jewett), another young prisoner who has learned how to survive the witch's wicked whims. With Yasmin’s help, Alex must learn to embrace what makes him unique — his love for scary stories — and rewrite his own destiny to break them free.

"I'm going to need a story every night. Or it's the last thing you'll ever do."

Head ups - this one has some scares and intense moments, so it might not be appropriate for younger viewers, check out the trailer to judge for yourself. Nightbooks premieres on Netflix September 15 and is recommended for kids 7 and older due to some scary content.
