'Creepy Kitchen' by Kim Kindelsperger is a delightful compilation of Halloween-themed recipes. From spooky beverages to appetizers that will send shivers down your spine to mains that will satisfy even the most discerning palates and desserts that are a treat for both the eyes and the taste buds, this book has it all.

From the moment I delved into its pages, I was enchanted by the abundance of Halloween fun and whimsy infused into each recipe. The selection offers a perfect balance of spine-tingling treats and delectable delights, all radiating serious spooky vibes that delight even the most discerning Halloween aficionados.

What truly sets "Creepy Kitchen" apart is its accompanying vintage-style creepy artwork, seamlessly integrated throughout the book. Each piece of art beautifully complements its adjacent recipe, setting the tone for a truly immersive culinary experience. Despite its ominous title, this cookbook caters to a wide range of tastes, making it a must-have for anyone who loves and adores Halloween or the Autumn/Fall season.

Furthermore, the book's layout is aesthetically pleasing and user-friendly, allowing for easy navigation and seamless execution of the recipes. Whether you're a seasoned chef or a novice in the kitchen, you'll find the instructions clear and concise, making the cooking process a breeze.

I eagerly anticipate sharing these spine-chilling delights with my loved ones, and I am sure this cookbook will become a cherished addition to my kitchen library.

Thank you to NetGalley and Rock Point Publishing for generously sending me an e-book copy of Creepy Kitchen in exchange for an honest review.

First off, let me say that I love, love, love Halloween. So, upon seeing this book, I knew I had to have it! And it didn't disappoint.

This book is filled with so much Halloween fun and whimsy that I was smitten. A good selection of recipes ranging from beverages, to appetizers, to mains, to desserts. Most of the items gave off serious spooky vibes. So much fun!

Also, I loved the accompanying creepy art work—each piece depicting its adjacent recipe. The art set the whole tone of the book.

This is the perfect cookbook for hosting a Halloween party or the perfect gift for a foodie who loves Halloween.

A themed cookery book that serves up creepy treats for Halloween and beyond.

I usually prefer cookery books to have actual photos but the art style here was perfect. Cute illustrations and a great look overall.

The recipes themselves look straightforward and easy to follow and would be perfect for parties and themed nights.

I absolutely adore the illustrations throughout this cook book. This would be such a popular treat during the Halloween season! It would be such a good gift to give to someone who's into creative cooking. It has a good variety of snacks, drinks and meals that's accessible. As someone who's not a good cook I can see myself making some of the items. I would've loved to see what the food looked like irl. However, I understand that using real photographs would ruin the visual aspects of the book. But maybe it could've been shown towards the end with the index.

Creepy Kitchen has the most endearing spooky illustrations for each recipe. I also loved that many recipes had bonus spooky facts and fun trivia. The recipes themselves were a nice mix of difficulties, and there would be something for every skill level.

Thanks to NetGalley, Kim Kindelsperger, and Quarto Publishing for the chance to review!

I received a copy of this eBook from netGalley for a honest review.

I loved the illustrations in this book which is normally something I hate in cookbooks. I want pictures to know if I made it correctly. But with this cookbook I think some variations are ok. It's not about looking pretty. I could see using many of these recipes on an everyday basis as well as on the holidays they we're created for. There's every food you need to throw a party or just have a creepy night in. I would love to own this book.
