Thank you to NetGalley for an ARC of It Came from the Multiplex: 80s Midnight Chillers.

I love anything horror so I was really excited when my request was approved.

This is a collection of short stories from a group of diverse writers in which the horror takes place or is centered around a movie theater.

There are bugs, ghosts, blood, gore and, yes, the devil.

Are the stories scary? Nah, but its not the fault of the authors. I'm just not that easy to scare.

Are the stories fun to read? YES.

The stories are short and sweet, and, for the most part, engaging, gross and kind of creepy. There were a few had such an interesting premise I wish they had been longer.

I love the 80s setting, the nostalgia, the vibe, music and movie posters, and the notable lack of social media and cell phones added to the old-timey atmosphere.

Last, but definitely not least, GREAT cover! Reminiscent of the old school horror movie posters of the 70s and 80s.

If you're looking for a quick taste of something scary, give It Came from the Multiplex: 80s Midnight Chillers a chance.
