Would be better with different narration

This seems to be written towards beginner scary story listeners. The writing is good but basic and gentle for the most part.

The narrator is monotone and creates no excitement, thrill or suspense. There are no pauses between stories and it listens like one long run on sentence.

Unique and Interesting stories

The stories started light and got harder as they went on. I love that this author doesn't just regurgitate the same old stories with a little spin. They definitely put their own imagination to work and don't just copy others work. Some were scarey, some not so much, but they were all worth the listen. The narration could be better but it doesn't take away from anything. It's like laying in bed at night listening to creepypasta. Buy it. it's worth the credit.

Good stories, not a great narrator

Overall I enjoyed the stories, wish some were a bit longer but still thought they were solid. The narrator is what brings this down for me. Pretty monotone made it tough to listen to. I also wish the chapter breaks were longer, they really just sound like one sentence to another.

A few good stories that could use more development. ú

I received a copy of this audiobook for review purposes.

This collection of short stories is a mixed bag. Most of these short stories feel like very early ideas of possible stories. Like the start of what could of been a longer, more developed story. In some cases this is very disappointing, since I'd love to see where the writer would of taken the idea, had they spent more time with it.
There was really one story that I found interesting and satisfied with. Another where it just ends abruptly and I was very disappointed in not getting more to that story. And like I said a few that felt like basic ideas that should possibly be returned to for more developing and others that possibly wouldn't develop much further.
I wasn't a fan of the narration. Felt very rushed and void of any emotion.

Nice short creepypasta type horror with awful narrator

Breaks between stories would be nice. Better than monotone voice that hikes up at the end of each sentence. Stories themselves are short and the type to be told around campfire with kids

Not a fan.

The voice actor was not that good. Very melatonin. I am not sure what the age level was for this, but they were not scary.
