Guillermo del Toro, the director that brought us films like Blade II, Hellboy, and Crimson Peak, is developing a movie adaptation of Alvin Schwartz’ Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark.

Currently, del Toro is attached to the project as a producer; however, according to Variety, del Toro has entered this project with his eye on directing.

Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark is known for its original art illustrated by Stephen Gammell, and del Toro says that Gammell’s art will be a focusing point for the film version of Scary Stories.

To answer some questions on Scary Stories- of course we WILL have Stephen Gammell’s imagery be preeminent on the film! Yeah!!

The production currently has no set release date, but the film is already catching buzz. Based on what we’ve already seen from del Toro in the past, Scary Stories could be a big hit for the horror movie genre.

I guess we’re lucky he didn’t win that Powerball.

Played Powerball. Lost. My plans was to buy an island, paint / dress myself in white and have a small person follow me around.
