Scary stories

Some surprising endings very good I liked it very well I will listen to next one

fascinating short horror stories

I am extremely happy with my new discovery of Billy Wells and his literary talent. I truly enjoy all the short stories I've read so far. The twist at the end are really great!

Repetitious arc

Speaking only for myself, The majority of the stories have the same story arc. A long build up and a TWISTED often MORAL ending. Half way through it’s possible to predict how the story will end. The stories seem to be variations on a theme and seem like I have heard to read similar stories with different characters and locations, though I can not name any specific stories the feeling persists. It’s a good book to sleep to.
