Fantasy. Horror. Young Adult Fiction. HTML:

A cemetery full of the restless dead. A town so wicked it has already burned twice, with the breath of the third fire looming. A rural, isolated bridge with a terrifying monster waiting for the completion of its summoning ritual. A lake that allows the drowned to return, though they have been changed by the claws of death. These are the shadowed, liminal spaces where the curses and monsters lurk, refusing to be forgotten.
Hauntings, and a variety of horrifying secrets, lurk in the places we once called home. Written by New York Times bestselling, and other critically acclaimed, authors these stories shed a harsh light on the scariest tales we grew up with.

These stories were not folk horror. It felt like a was reading short stories that were written with little thought and whipped out as quickly as possible. Couldn't finish it. ( )

Do I need an entire collection with stories that had massive potential but were ruined by ridiculous YA writing and a plethora of ''let's push our agendas'' messages?

No,I don't. ( )
