some good stories
mr-rob-c11 August 2022
Würde die Stories zwischen 5-7 manche was besser, manche was schlechter

persönlich denke ich, es wäre besser gewesen, wenn die 25-30min lang gewesen wären einzige was ist und auffällt, das die Effekte nicht so doll sind, aber wenn man nur die Idee als solches betrachtet und sich darauf einlässt, dann hat man ein paar solide Stories

viel Spaß, have fun.

Only got halfway through Episode 1
nick-833-56956316 August 2022
Terrible "slo-mo" scenes where they just reduced play speed so it's choppy as hell.

Bad CGI.

Badly edited, cut have been a 30 min episode.

The name remains on the chair, but everything else is supposedly gone, so even chat messages...?

Horrofic on a childish level, cringey.
sisubalan23 October 2022
Was it meant to be a comedy series or horror, or both? Since i didnt find it to be scary, i will classify it as comedy. Another so called horror series featuring thailand's high school student drama (theres literally hundred of them, heavily used plot). Its low budget, so i had very low expectations for this series in terms of the graphics and make up department. Even the casts were fresh and awfully not experienced in acting. Comprises of several short series per episode- repetitve storylines and predictable endings. Sound scores were highly bass and techno, very halloweenie, definitely sampled not original. Just mild.

Snooze fest
Mili_Cja11 August 2022
I couldn't get past second episode so I don't know, maybe there are some true gems up ahead that I will never know about because first impressions totally blew it. It's a turd, boring, not a bit scary, and episodes are way too long. "Seasoned Thai creators" made this? Maybe the seasoning went sour this time.

One of the Best Thai Horror/Thriller Series!
nelbertdeciobagarino14 August 2022
The Film was quite good and well made, but at some point I can tell that it wasn't a successful Series. Here's why? I do-do love watching Horror Movies that's why I gave it a big GO!!! And look forward to it... The Trailer, if I'm being honest, it's actually a bit cheesy and I rate it 5.6/10, but I still have a courage to watch it because it's also eye-catching and mind-teasing for some reasons. I watched it after it was released on Netflix, It's quite good and impressive, and as for what I'm telling it doesn't exceeded my expectations because it's not scary as I thought it would have been, I could definitely consider it as Thriller Series than Horror Genre. Well, it's good Thriller Series with unpredictable twists and ending in every episode though!

Episode 1: 4/10 After watching it, I'm having thoughts of stopping watching the next episode because the plot wasn't good and I don't understand the story. The Cinematography was quite but the editing was so cheesy that makes the Film not scary, the acting was good though, it just didn't delivered the plot well and it has too many lackings and need improvements, it takes me 2 times of watching this episode for me to fully understand it. It's not good Episode nor bad at all, just probably the most worst episode to begin with.

Episode 2: 6.2/10 The plot was will delivered with many twists. The editing is way better than the first episode. The Cinematography is still the same, the sound effects is good too. I like this episode because it has gory scenes. The acting was so good and it end very well.

Episode 3: 7/10 I like this episode because it's relatable to the problems in the society. The insecurities and fame. The editing is okay but I couldn't say that it's good, but the plot and the story was well delivered with so many thrilling scenes and it ends perfectly.

Episode 4: 8.8/10 It's the best episode of all. It's has atmospheric storytelling and very dramatic acting. This episode, I can tell that it's Thriller and a bit of Horror, it's teasing and the plot is unpredictable. The editing is much great than the other episode. I love the ending especially its back stories.

Episode 5: 6.5/10 I thought it would be the scariest because of its title and I got annoyed when I found out that it is a Comedy/Thriller episode. The acting is perfect specially the main casts and I'm shocked to that almost BL Romance Scene, they're so cute and I kept laughing when I watched it. The editing was quite good but a bit obvious if you focused your look to the headless teacher because they blurred it a little bit and its structure wasn't accurate as the humans neck and the double head prosthetic was too obvious fake, it's cool though but not scary. In the ending, I felt the drama and the emotions of the cast because of its tearful, happy ending. It's a good one Comedy episode LoL!

Episode 6: 6.8/10 It's all Thriller and it's good from the acting of the main cast. The editing was good and the plot of it was also unpredictable. Just little disappointed with the killing scene because its not showed in the Films Cinematography not like the other episode. It also lacks of Narratives and plot improvements. It's good though, and I'd say that its genre is Drama and Thriller.

Episode 7: 8.0 This is the seconds best. The plot was well delivered and quite good storyline and dramatic acting. The editing was quite impressive than episode 4 but just have some lackings in killing and thrilling scenes, the killing scene must be showed in the Cinematography not being hidden. The ending was good though but I think it's just the same way the episode 4 ends.

Episode 8: 3.8/10 The story is quite good and impressive if the plot was delivered perfectly. The flashbacks makes sense but the drama of the acting, I can't fell it. It's also a bit tricky in the ending and very hard to understand. The editing was so good especially to every tales that had been showed in this episode. I don't like the ending because it's so cheesy especially the portal where they crossed in, it's not good and not improve in terms of props. Well, I could say that it ends well because of the final line "They said, every School has a Tale".

For me, it's good but I think it all ends the same, like most of the main cast died in every episode except to the episode 5 because it's a Comedy one. It has same plot and most commonly they used 'Curse and Revenge' to a Horror Genre and the editing is quite good but need some improvements. It's more on Thriller than Horror as far as I know. It is a unique Series ever and I've liked it so far!

Acting: 8.5/10 Cinematography: 7/10 Editing: 6.8/10 Plot: 7.5/10 Genre-Horror/Gore-Score/Creepiness: 4/10

Final Rating: 7/10.

Seasoned horror directors? Don't think so.
Unfilmy14 August 2022
Very boring and pretty bad acting. Absolutely no horror here. Silly stories. Some scenes are downright hilarious and not in a good way. Skip it at all costs.

Anthology at its best
haroonoptimist-2730912 August 2022
Kids did great acting in almost all eps. However the last story was really cool. A little dark atmosphere & ghosts are too typical but overall an entertaining drama different from the typical horror ghost movies.

Must see.

could've been better
fushii1231 June 2023
Disappointing...

Honestly I only liked the first and last ep ... don't waste ur time watching it you will most likely regret it

??? Some episodes were really confusing and just stupid... And ep 5 ??? It was goofy.. It was a little funny but I don't understand its purpose in this series.

For ep 1 and 8 I really liked them. First episode was truly amazing It gave me a feeling the whole series is gonna be a good watch and interesting but I guess it wasn't after all...

Honestly could've been wayyyyy better this is truly just disappointing.

Really not horror or anything at all ... It was just stupid and I don't see why it is classified as one.

Something interesting to watch
kmhlbeavis13 August 2022
The first couple of episodes were pretty much the same format. After that it got pretty good. There was one episode the headless teacher which was more of comedy horror which was good. I would recommend watching this for the age appropriate audience.

Getting worse in every episode
erhanipekciler3 July 2023
This is my first Thai series and I can say I started with lots of hopes but after 5 episode it started to be boring and meaningless. It was not scary at all. Actually I felt like it is kind of amateur project like short movie.. Headless teacher was kind of funny but super stupid and after that lunch episode.. Top of the stupidity. Well if you wanna kill some time without too much expectation, you can watch, some stories are really boring but we cannot look for logic for ghost stories like that. Acting is ok, i didn't feel any fake situation but of course it is Thai and I cannot compare with anything.

Classic ghost horror at its best

I think this show was fantastic. Good stories, good acting, good visual effects, make up.. Classic ghost stories, I think generally, Thai horror is phenomenal.

A solid horror anthology where bad things happen at school
Tweekums6 September 2022
Each episode of this anthology series is set in a school and each features curses or hauntings that put the pupils, and sometimes the teachers, in deadly peril. Many of the events involve previous unpleasantness within the schools; especially bullying which leads to the victim getting supernatural revenge in several of the stories.

I thought this was a really solid series. Each episode provides an interesting story. By and large they are nicely creepy and include some disturbing scenes. The scenes of bullying are probably the most disturbing as they are obviously far more plausible that ghosts and curses killing people. There isn't much in the way of humour... apart from the fifth episode, 'Headless Teacher', which is definitely played for laughs. The mostly young cast is pretty good throughout and the settings are suitably atmospheric. Apart from the previously mentioned 'Headless Teacher' the episodes are tonally very similar so viewers should be able to decide whether or not you'll enjoy it fairly quickly. Overall I'd certainly recommend this to fans of subtitled horror.

These comments are based on watching the series in Thai with English subtitles.

Tales of Resentment Brooding GRUDGE
sreelekhaburla13 April 2024
Warning: Spoilers
Harassing another person is a symptom of psychological inferiority. Only those who have been victims of such torture would relate to these stories. Bullying at various levels of intensity on different grounds has been depicted here. First three stories were extremely good. 'Book of Corpses' wasn't exactly horror but gore. Personally, i don't find horror and comedy being miscible hence..... In case of 'Infirmary Curse' i couldn't understand why 'Korn' had to face repercussions in turn. He was clearly the one who bore with their cruelty the whole time. Last episode dangled between reality and fiction. However i failed to comprehend the ending. Experimentation of horror with a dash of other genres by the bench of directors reduced the graph of likability. Most audience didn't acknowledge the series being horrific due to certain essential elements amiss. Kay, Shinaradee, Jennis, Siwat, Chimon, Saint, Fiat, child artists Garto and Euro did a commendable work. I applaud the Art team while VFX have a lot of scope, unexplored.
