In short:
- Mirror, Mirror: three stars. Really enjoyed the first story. Had quite a unique take.
- An ax for the storm: DNF. This was my least favourite story in the entire book. I just couldn't get into it.
- Oh cruel darkness: four stars. Great atmosphere, good story.
- She's come undone: five stars. SO FREAKING GOOD!
- One last breath: four stars. Fun story!
- Once upon a storm drain: three stars. I just didn't connect with this story as I did with others. It was still enjoyable though.
- (Hair)suit: two stars. Not my cup of tea. Actually wanted to dnf (oops).
- Perfection: three stars. Loved the music vibes.
- Stay with me: five stars. SO SO GOOD! Loved every part of it.
- Whistle for me: three stars. Actually enjoyed this one! I didn't expect to like it tbh.
- The seventh crow: two stars. Just meh.
- Sleepwalker: two stars. I was pretty bored throughout this one. But still liked the ending.

So overall, I still give the anthology three out of five stars. It's a solid read and I loved the twist on the Old Wives' tales. The stories are short and fairly easy to read. Some definitely had scarier vibes than other stories, but overall it was a good creepy read.

If you like anthologies this is definitely a book for you!
