Nice Collection

I always enjoy the collections put out by the International Thrill Writers and this was no exception. Some of the stories were better than others but overall it was a good listen.

Kinda lackluster, more sci-fi than horror

I was so excited to read this book, I loved R.L. Stein as a child. I was disappointed, these stories were hardly creepy and most of them were more sci-fi than horror. I wasn't a fan of most of the stories and only mostly liked about 3-4 of the stories. I was expecting creepy, spooky, makes you think, suspense, not lizard men on trains and people on an alien planet who are actually fleas... it just didn't have that zing. The best thing was the narrators, appealing voices and great voice changes for different characters. This book might be better for pre-teens and younger sci-fi/creepy fans.

Fun stories to get you into Halloween mood

I really enjoyed these short stories that had their own unique spin on horror. Nothing too gruesome, but suspenseful.

Happy listening!
