While the second half of "Halloween" was woefully light on undead Quinto mincing, we did get a couple of nice scares. Go to Full Review Jeff Jensen Entertainment Weekly Aug 30, 2016
Zachary Quinto, I know you're busy being Spock and starring in indy gems like Margin Call and serving as an awesome, inspiring role model for your generation, but please: Haunt this show often, will you? Because you're lighting it up. Go to Full Review Emily St. James AV Club Aug 30, 2016

We have no idea how to recap a show like this because it's all jump cuts and shocks, with bits of story thrown in here and there to tie it together. Go to Full Review Matt Richenthal TV Fanatic Aug 30, 2016
4.6/5
So another fun hour has gone by, one that stepped harder on the action-packed gas than any episode to date. Go to Full Review Matt Fowler IGN Movies Aug 30, 2016
8.5/10
