Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald 12/04/2019
A watchable little fantasy-mystery series that aims to get kids reading children's classics again -- for the fun of it and for the relevance the books still have to children's lives. Go to Full Review Chris Schulz The Post NZ 02/26/2020
This show's aimed at the 8-12 age group and while early episodes are a bit too serious, they get much more fun the further into it you get. Go to Full Review Alexis Gunderson Paste Magazine 02/26/2020
That said, adult viewers, in general, need not apply... The cinematography is really lovely, and the ghost-related visual shenanigans are engaging, but there are no sly jokes for the adults in the room here. Go to Full Review Emily Ashby Common Sense Media 11/05/2019
5/5
Notable reboot brings book characters into kids' lives. Go to Full Review Kahron Spearman The Daily Dot 11/04/2019
4.5/5
The kids are fantastic in their well-written roles, and the effects accentuate the stories, rather than overload the eyes. Most importantly, the show puts literature in the front seat. Go to Full Review Joel Keller Decider 11/04/2019
Ghostwriter is a great example of why Sesame Workshop is one of the best creators of kids' programming out there. They keep shows smart, with clever dialogue and complex writing. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
