"This is a fun story for Halloween. It has a slightly "old fashioned" feel (as in, from 1990, haha! Made me nostalgic for my childhood) and there is nothing remarkable about it, but it's a fun, enjoyably-spooky tour through a haunted house. There is a little "mystery" as to who is actually going through the house as all we see are two pairs of legs, the rest of the people just out of sight, until the "surprise" ending (which was fun and kids should enjoy the result!)"
"A Kindergarten/Grade 1 read aloud for October. More fun if the children think of all the scary things that might be inside the haunted house before reading the story. They will probably be right. The ending is clever too; Guess who is most scared?"
"This is perhaps the best haunted house picture book that I've ever read. To me, the strength of In the Haunted House is the fact that it reads very similarly to what it's like to actually go inside a commercial haunted house, complete with all the uncertainty and nagging fears and insecurity that come with such a trip. Eve Bunting's writing, coupled with the illustrations of Susan Meddaugh, is very evocative of this experience, and how it really unfolds. This is a pleasingly eerie book, and I would give it one and a half stars. It's a perfect book for Halloween."
