Resumen del Editor

Gather round as today’s most diabolically clever authors twist simple moments into otherworldly horrors. An empty baby stroller. A scratching underneath the bed. A farmhouse in the moonlight. With an unnerving sense of the macabre, these stories transform our greatest fears into bone-chilling realities.

Ready for another volume by the same authors and narrators

Awesome set of short stories. You won't be disappointed. Ready for another volume to be released

Malerman ftw…

Some good stuff here for horror fans of all tastes. Josh Malerman’s story…oof…creepers.

Cleverly written contemporary takes on monsters

this collection was a pleasant surprised. if you're looking for modern horror with a nod to some classics, and just plain old good stories, this book is a good bet.

Spooky Fun!

I've really enjoyed this series and hope more of the same type are in the works. It introduced me to people like Josh Malerman and Grady Hendrix. Pick it up! You'll be glad you did. ;-)

Riveting, perfectly scary, and well written

A perfect dabble to test out horror writers. I wish there were ten more if these. Each highlights the unique style and imagination of the author and it led me to a new stack of books by each. So much fun!

the suspence

I always like a good scary book. all of these guys keep me turning pages

Covid and (not) Amish

The first story was painfully annoying. The author's biases are plastered throughout the story. If you find the Amish and "long covid" scary, 'The Pram' is perfect for you.

the other stories are decent. most of them read like Creepypastas that you can read for free. if there's one bright spot for this book, it's the Narrators.

Great listen fun stories.

Unique scary stories. I highly recommend. Something different. The narrators do a great job seriously.

Great Shorts for a Spooky Night!

Some instant classics by Joe Hill & Paul Tremblay, as well as a great performance of "Bad Luck that plays like a Jordan Peele film. All stories are excellently written and narrated save one, "Ankle Snatchers," by Grady Hendrix, which was a stinker on both accounts. Strange casting choice on that one, and I'm pretty sure kids have been writing that basic story for middle school english since the 50s. Absolutely recommend the others, though!

Scary

Spooked me pretty good. Very cool and unique stories that are so good, they leave you wanting more. I’d love to see a movie about a couple of these!
