Da piccolo sono stato un grande amante del primi King, in particolare questa raccolta di racconti è uno dei suoi migliori, in poche pagine riesce a terrorizzarti... in particolare il racconto “baubau” è assolutamente SPAVENTOSO!
Quick thoughts: What can I say. A collection of some of the finest horror shorts I have read. The wide range of genres and excellent story telling will have you devouring each one.
Here are all the individual updates:
Story 1 of 20: “Jerusalem's Lot” - What a fun, brooding, spooky tale featuring a family home and a town with a dark past. LOVED the letter writing perspective and the church sequences. (⭐⭐⭐⭐)
Story 2 of 20: “Graveyard Shift” - A deceptively fun story that quite literally creeps up on you at the end. Stay out of the basement!
