Fun show!

Warning: Spoilers
A fun time with friends. Lots of Halloween stage set ups and costuming. My favorite! Very theatric. Shoniqua Shandai from Harlem and her godsister had me on the floor laughing my heart out. We had a good time watching. Most people don't realize how easily they flinch or scream or run when they're trying not to be scared. Hilarious! I think the trophy could be better designed though. I liked the interactive obstacles. Could use more playbacks of the scream videos. Surprisingly the younger ones who thought they wouldn't flinch did the most flinching. And the dudes weren't as tough as they thought they could be. Looking forward to more episodes and more set ups.

Hope this not going to be a weekly show, got bored within 3 minutes.

I dont think this review contains any spoilers. All this show is just a carnival horror house attraction, made for TV, tried watching it on Freevee, twitchy camera work at best, jumping all over the place. A couple of celebrities I have heard of, most were complete unknowns. I have been to my share of horror houses in my time with a bunch of people jumping out at you, screaming and holloring, one guy screamed at me RUN, i turned at looked at him and said WHAT, he got real quiet, kind of suprised him, Just hope this is NOT going to be a weekly TV show, if it is, count me out. I'd be surprised if this show actually make it a full season.

A fun way to spend an hour

Spooky season is upon us and I love reality shows that celebrate it. Unlike shows such as "The Great Halloween Fright Fight" or "Halloween Wars", "Make Me Scream" is just a one off special.

There's not much to the show; it's just three celebrities and their friends in pairs of two going through haunted house scares and solving puzzles. Much like MTV's "Silent Library" before it, "Make Me Scream" bases the success of the pairs on a decibel reading scream meter. But hosts Tempest Bledsoe and Darryl Bell also take points off if they run, hide, or close their eyes.

It was fun to see our old TV friends Tempest and Darryl (who both simply do not age) along with Jaleel White. The Cosby Show, A Different World, and Family Matters all on one show? Sign me up!

It's a fun way to spend (less than) an hour and if your kids are old enough, they'll love it too.

Light hearted and perfect for Halloween
Mikomiko191326 October 2023
I liked the show. However, I thought it was going to be a true series since it is shown as Season 1 Episode 1 released on October 3rd. Today is October 26th. And it was the only "episode" available to watch. Guess there won't be any more episodes released. I was hoping there would be more episodes with other celebrities. I still liked it, I just didn't like it for a 1 episode special. I hope they do a season 2, but make it a true season with multiple episodes and other celebrities. And I hope they keep the host and hostess the same. Tempest Bledsoe and Darryl M. Bell did a great job. It was good to see them back on the screen.

Funny to laugh at people's fear.
kjsesay11 October 2023
Light hearted laughter. It's funny to Laugh at someone being afraid of monsters and clowns stuff that we innately are Afraid of so it was a good enough. I've thoroughly enjoyed it and I think it's something that is needed nowadays. Something that's light-hearted funny but yet scary. And it's comedy so you know. I think it's good a little Show Unlike fear factor.

It's a light-hearted show that you can enjoy with your family. Your little kids can watch it With no fear of anything being inappropriate, it's just laughing at people who are scared genuinely based on situations that they have to do so I recommend it.

Such fun!
erhanipekciler17 January 2024
Omg! I want to join that then I want to watch myself but probably I can poop in 5 min :) this is hilarious show. I watched new i had no idea during Halloween, I missed but I really enjoyed. First of all I don't know noone in the show, they are not famous in my country, I hope in second season there will be more international celebrities ( if there will be second season) I will not say I laughed so much or I cried but that was fun, I enjoyed really much and also stages were so brilliant. Last one was especially really good. I hope to see really second one also maybe like 'floor is lava' on Netflix, they can make with real people. Good job. I love it.
