The horrors of small town Nebraska: review.

A collection of six, deliciously spine-chilling, horror shorts of the paranormal and/or spooky variety.

Some of these shorts are classic 'paranormal/ghost horror', some are more psychological 'Stephen King horror'.

The stories are captivating, well-written, and easy to read.

A great collection for reading with your [late] afternoon tea/coffee on a properly grey autumn day.

Five stars.
