Another collection I grabbed for my Spooky Season based off the cover alone. So eerie and weird. 
My favorite story is ‘The Halloween Store'. It reads kind of like a more horrific ‘Goosebumps: The Haunted Mask'. A group of friends save up for these vintage boxed Halloween costumes. Needless to say, they get them, and things go a little sideways. A witch, a vampire, a werewolf, and a mummy. What's the worst that could happen? 
The runner up is definitely ‘Pretty Little Lanterns‘. A string of heads-turned jack-o-lanterns turn this town's holiday season upside down. I found this one to be particularly gruesome. The description of how the heads are carved out was definitely a terrifying read. And the twist identity reveal?? This was a fun one. 
The other stories range from silly, spooky, and downright scary. This was a fun collection, I would read more by this author for sure.
