The Screaming Room ~ I count this one as the most horrifying of the five.
The Grinning Man ~ I actually like the ending to this one the best. Although, I’m not sure what the future brings for that family. Happy ever after? Or not?
Et In Arcadia Ego ~ This one gets the Most Creepy award, but also has a satisfying ending.
The Shape of the Beast ~ I count this the weirdest. It is so strange and mind-blowing. What the hell did I just read??
The Whispering Shell ~ This is probably the second most horrifying of the bunch. And so sad.
If you like horror, but maybe only in small bites, then this is the book for you.
