5.0 out of 5 stars I LOVE IT!!!, Nov 13 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Horrors!: 365 Scary Stories (Hardcover)

I absolutly love this book. It has so many eerie and frightning stories in it. This one story, Feast of the Crows, by Brian Hopkins was terrifing. I suggest not to read that story if you are afraid of birds, though.

1.0 out of 5 stars 65 scary stories, 300 dull ones, April 28 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Horrors!: 365 Scary Stories (Hardcover)

i guess brevity isn't always a good thing. many of these stories are silly or cute -- in the oh, he was a serial killer/vampire/crazy guy vein. though there are some that manage to create a chill in a very short space (a hard thing to do), most of them left me frustrated and/or bored.
maybe it's that i sat down and read half the book in one sitting - not advised. your best bet is to skim, there are a few treasures in here. when it's good, it's very, very good. when it's bad, it's just awful.

If you're into horror, get it. If you're not into horror, take a look at it and read few right there in the store (which is easier than it sounds since most of the stories are only about 3 pages in length, max). It's a cool collection of tales that you can kind of treat like a literary snack, a horror-d'vour, so to speak. Plus, it really helps to get you interested in the genre and reading in general; you feel as though you're accomplishing some serious reading, even if some of the stories aren't that great.

There's so many stories, you really can't go wrong; there's going to be something in there for you, and if you run across a couple of stinkers, so what? They were only 3 pages long anyway!
A must for writers looking to hone their voice down to a sharp point.
