If Monster House hit the spot, these will too

Common ground in both: monster and halloween

The same preoccupation in both: halloween

The same mix in both: wit, then play

Dreamlike where it counts, dread-soaked underneath

Both lean on unease more than on comedy

Witty fantasy in both cases
The difference: 25 years apart, and the 1980s show

Playful horror, and it commits to that

Family with a pulse of dream logic, in both cases

Gil Kenan working the same nerve twice
The difference: The scrappier of the two with critics

Common ground: haunted house
The difference: Sits closer to mystery than Monster House does

Animation built on dread, twice over
The difference: Takes it somewhere less dreamlike than Monster House does

Comedy built on unease, twice over
