Other mistake: After Sarah gets Slappy into the locker he could see Tyler from inside but the problem is that the angle and the height of the vents are wrong for that perspective.

"Goosebumps 2: Haunted Halloween" tries its hardest, but is never quite able to recapture the thrills (or heart) that made the original a surprise success. This is in no small part due to it being noticeably lower-budget than the 2015 film, and suffering a rushed, patchy narrative. Although it does thankfully benefit from Jack Black in another scene-stealing turn as R.L. Stine and a few engaging sequences.
As it stands, "Haunted Halloween" serves best as a weekend rental for families with young children... but it's not really worth rushing out to buy. I give it a middle-of-the-road 2.5 out of 5. (Rounding up to 3 for the rating system on this website).
Trivia: When RL Stein gets out of his his car he sees a red balloon floating near a sewer vent and he says something along the line of, "I knew it! I did it first!" This is a reference to Stephen king's IT. Also Jeremy Ray Taylor, who plays Sonny in this film, played Ben Hanscom in the 2017 remake of IT.
