Extremely liberal, ex-pat. Will delete MAGAts & other deplorables without delay. No DMs & if you're not dressed, don't bother. NOT THE SLIGHTEST BIT INTERESTED IN YOUR RELIGION! If you're following 40k already, why bother?
"This place ain’t healthy. Not right. Not for you."

This was a fun read, not only because of the author's talent but also because it was developed as a screenplay. It leads to some interesting scenes as well as open questions (was she a witch?).

"I give you… the bloodiest, the most murderous, the great-est monster of us all. MAN."

An all-time classic! R. Chetwynd-Hayes' "Monster Club" - the book, not the movie - is a treat for any reader, not just horror lovers! Exquisitely presented!

"Spiders. They’re inside me now. I feel them in my veins."

I must confess up front that I am not a fan of spiders. Which made this tale about genetically enhanced spiders even creepier! A quick read with lots of hairy-legged action!

"Something’s wrong. Something is terribly, awfully wrong."

Loved this fantastic mix of classic monsters in space in the 35th century! All that and AI units getting in touch with their feelings! So much fun!

"I’m going to have fun tonight, even if it kills me."

This masterfully named book was a hell of a lot of fun! Just replace the weird/crazy slasher from your fave horror movie with a mummy with an axe & you're set to go!

"It was a beautiful night to see something potentially terrifying."

An okay story with v.little actual horror, tho I remain steadfast in saying that Shea is one of the best horror authors active today! Still, if you love all things Mothman, a good read!

"We aren’t required to live the story that’s expected. Our lives belong to us."

Again a fantastic reimagining of a classic monster story! However, "The Creature" pales to the storm waiting to destroy everything in its path!

SERIOUS QUESTION:
Are there proportionally more novellas (180 pages or fewer) being released (in relation to full novels) these days or am I just noticing it more?

Discuss (extra credit for pie charts ... mmm, love me a good pie chart)!

The best compliment I can give this wonderful wild western tale is I want to re-read it immediately! A fantastic journey through the old west w/ action, magick & emotion galore!

"No snacks. Bed by 7:30. Don’t play with the Ouija board. No making a mess...
Wait — Ouija board?"

The name of the game is indeed "Kill the Babysitter" & young Jane is in for a lot more than she could have ever bargained for! Retro horror fun!

"Does he really have an urge to kill?"
"All children do these days."

A wild, humorous mix of "stuff" (no horror) that maybe approximates "Pinocchio". Probably not. You decide (if I have to, I'll pull all my own teeth out)...

An emotional & highly entertaining story about a man that does all he can to protect his niece... who has risen from the dead! Vitamin Z, um, G baby!!!

"On the 11th of April, 1983, unto me a son was born ...
and I felt nothing."

So torn. I could have rated this 5⭐s or even just 1. A thought-provoking & wonderfully executed story even if I wound up disliking almost every single character. Must read!

"He didn’t know why he’d do such a thing. It shamed and disgusted him.
He was just so damned hungry."

An outstanding read. I didn't find it all that scary per se - much more "icky" than anything else- it's a very well executed story. Worth a read!

"The people of the village have always hated us."

<3⭐. I was interested in this mostly because so many people have described it as haunting or creepy, even sinister, unsettling and/or disturbing. For me? None of the above. Oh well.

"There was his little girl, his angel, a monster…

He loved her too much to let her live."

An enthralling & truly gut-wrenching tale of horror wrapped in an equally frightening blanket of self-discovery. KEY: is demonic possession heriditary?

"All my friends are at the playground."

My reaction was definitely split: this is a fairly good book but it's also v.much YA. Really no real scares & not the kind of horror that I most enjoy. Well-written but I'd call it avg. at best w/ so so characters.

"Hurting and killing things made him happy."

As usual with themed collections, some stories are pretty good & some are just gods awful. TBH for this list of authors, I expected much better. But don't make me angry because I'll bite your nose off! Wait…

"Mr. Giggles is okay."

From a rather inauspicious start (dumpster diving at the local woman's clinic), the book just gets weirder&weirder & more bloody to boot. An acid dropping miasma of putrid bizarreness that can't be compared to anything else. Enjoy!

Another anthology albeit but defo not as gruesome as my last post. Call it "cozy horror"!
