The colder season where the nights are longer than the days, a short horror story collection is the way to go. What better way to spend your evening after work being surrounded by books than coming home and loosing yourself in a horror story that’ll creep you out with the perfect fire? These were creepy , I found myself jumping at numerous parts of the book. I love the concepts in these books - some I had never read before. It just made the experience so much more joyous.

This is a fantastic anthology that delivers well told stories with various themes. You get everything from cosmic horror to psychological horror to the more splattery kind of horror.

Each one is scary though and the author uses various perspectives in these tales which gives them all a unique voice. You won't be bored with them, that's for sure!

I can honestly say that this is probably one of the best anthologies I've read this year. Some of these stories will definitely stay with me for a long time and probably give me an excuse to leave a light on. I highly recommend this book!

Thank you to NetGalley and the publishers for providing me with an ARC to review.

3 stars!

This is a collection of short stories, not too short and not too long. Each holds a different feeling and held my interest in different ways. I seemed to really like Storms of the Present. Really well described that helped bring the story out.

4 stars

What a fantastic collection of short stories. I enjoyed each of them fully. Each story is strong and holds its own very well.
Also, I just love that cover art!

this was a unique concept and did what I was hoping for. Christopher Hawkins has a great way of writing a horror novel. I enjoyed all parts of these stories and was hooked from the first story. It does what a good horror collection should and I'm glad I was able to read this.

"But it was almost like…almost like she was communicating with them somehow. She’d look right into their eyes—not that they had eyes, or faces, even. It was all just white plastic—and it was as if they just held her there."

Wow! Just the book I needed to read for Halloween!

Thank you, Coronis Publishing, for the advance reading copy.

The writing is so good I would say and it is different for different stories! I am impressed.

I would say each story has a different unique plot which makes the entire book so interesting from the first page till the last page.

Each story will present you a story which is simple enough to start with but will end as something which will haunt you. Like for sure! Do not even doubt about it.

Go for this book!
