MY REVIEW:

5 STARS

THIS BOOK IS SO COOL, CREEPY, AND GREAT GRAPHICS!

I'm going to do each little story so here we go......

OUR NEIGHBOR'S HOUSE

One day a father of three girls says he's going out hunting, he told the girls that if he didn't come back in three days to go to the neighbor's house. I'm thinking they should have done what he said. Now I'm not sure if the same thing would have happened, but still...



Since they decided to stay there, the next day one of the sisters said a man came to the door the night before, and the next day....the sister... is gone..

This is one of my favorite stories and I just really wish we could have found out what was exactly inside that house at the end!

A LADY'S COLD HANDS

This girl's father marries her off to this man and she moves into his manor. Well, she gets waken up every night hearing some singing.



She decides to search the house while her husband is away and finds a creepy discovery. When her husband gets home she gets the hell out of dodge and leaves behind.....

HIS FACE ALL RED

This one is about a brother who kills his brother or does he, what happened?


They were just going into the woods to kill a monster, but what happened and who is the monster really!

MY FRIEND JANNA

This girl Janna used to speak to ghosts but it wasn't for real, she was scamming people. But her friend really did see ghosts.



Now her friend Janna is haunted and where did she go.....

THE NESTING PLACE

This one is thoroughly creepy. Bell's mother tells her all these scary stories when she was young and when her mom passes away she has to go and live with her brother and fiancee, but something just isn't right.....



Her mother once told her the worst kind of monster was a burrowing monster.... yeah I would agree this is a really creepy monster I would not want to meet!

IN CONCLUSION

This is the story of a girl who lived at the edge of a forest and I'm guessing that is her father's house because he tells her to be careful of the woods on the way to her moms house because of the wolves.


She thinks she made it to her moms house and is safe in bed... or is she....

I loved all of these little stories and I'm going to be buying this one for sure! It's just the right amount of creep and I want some more books from this author like this, where are they? Are there any? Tell me!
