It sucks because the crypt keeper usually read out The narrative of the story to begin it. Now you have to read the narrative to understand the story, I'm okay with reading it but my son is not that fast at reading it so it just sucks for him because he doesn't get the whole understanding of the story. now if you had the crypt keeper reading it like they did back in the late 80s and 90s it would be a lot easier for people to follow along with.
