Now when I first heard about this book I was thinking more of the typical blood and gore like in the movies. Boy! was I wrong this collection of stories from Rayne Hall are great with out all of that. While reading my heart would race and I could feel it throughout my body. I would get so wrapped in to the story nothing around me would matter much (reading at night with nothing on in the house could be both a good thing and a bad thing looking back on it).
Now I know your probably still wondering "How can this be horror stories with out the blood and gore??" and I have to say answer being scared or horrified does not take some of us to achieve through seeing blood or something murdered and a scene outrageous. But the unexpectedness of what you think to be red eyes in the distance to the clink of keys, or even just your own fear of unknown around the corner is what brings the HORROR to life in these stories.
I do have to say if your looking to get in depth and in love with a character like in a full story this is not a book like that. You may feel for a character or wish they things had happened different in one way or another but it is not going to be where you know a characters life story. You get just enough information that your not lost and then it is on to story telling.
I would certainly recommend this book or even just certain stories (depending on the people I know) to those looking for a good heart thumping book scary set of writings. Each story has something different to offer anyone who read for me it is going to be different then if I told a friend to read because we all have our own fears.
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
