I love this set. The asymmetry makes for a fun building experience and looks nice when you display it. The minifigs are super cool, I love the glow-in-the-dark heads. They remind me of the old Monster Fighters characters. I'm excited to see where this collection goes!

The build itself was fun. All of the exterior details are fantastic, especially the tree growing through the right side of the house. My problem is with the interior. There are 6 studs front to back for the interior. 6. You can't do much of anything with a distance of that type, and it shows. What is there is really good, but with all of the furniture set in place, there is hardly any room for the minifigs. You can't even fit all of them on the first floor. I thought the price of this was a little on the high side before I purchased it but I was hoping for more on the interior. My other issue is the complete lack of play functions. Halloween theme stuff could do so much to add fun, play details. This is an okay first entry for this Midnight Valley theme, and I look forward to more, but if this is a companion to the Holiday theme, it needs to do a better job, especially with the two glaring issues I mentioned above.

The Midnight Valley collection is here, and it's off to a screaming start. This was a delightful build all around: surprisingly sturdy, never repetitive, and best of all? No stickers! The included prints are uniformly lovely. My favorite part were all the odd shapes and little details created by the tree growing through one side of the house; it really leaves you with the impression that the building is being torn apart. There's little in the way of play experience here. No play features, and no moving parts save for the front doors. For myself -- and much of the target audience, I suspect -- this is not an issue, as the set perfectly satisfies its purpose as a "Halloween village" display, but I thought I'd mention it. Kids might still find enjoyment simply moving the manor's residents around and inventing their own stories. My one true critique is that I wish the maid came with a neutral expression, as the butler and the mayor did. Those two have the option of appearing either dour or friendly at the builder's preference, but the maid is always smiling. An incredibly minor quibble in what is otherwise an exceptional start to hopefully a long-running collection!

I just built this set and I love everything about it. I love that it has a narrative that unfolds as you build (and no doubt more to come with future sets), I love all the details in the different areas, I love the colors, I love the overall design (especially the tree element). My only complaint is that it feels like it should be bigger.

lego quality and their quality control isn't what it used to be

Amazing set and reduced price!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this set! A great start to spooky season!

This 18 seasonal kit was a nice change of pace, challenging and fun.

This is a great starting set for what I hope continues to be a successful line of Halloween themed buildings. I collect the new Christmas sets every year and would love to build a spooky town to display in the fall

Love the set, particularly at such an excellent value. Super fun build and great to display for the spooky season. Hope they keep this line going with more additions in the future. Looking forward to building one of these each Halloween season.
