Description

Dark offers chilling stories, both fiction and real life, about the things that scare us the most: murder, hauntings, visitations, insanity and our own vulnerability! Examined through the eyes of some of the world's most gifted writers- Edgar Allan Poe, Rudyard Kipling, Robert Frost, W.W. Jacobs, Iain Banks, Charlotte Perkins Gilman, Paul Bowles, Will Self, Marjorie Bowen, A.M. Burrage, Blue Balliett -we feel the malice of serial murderers, the cold evil of the undead, the unreasoning hatred show more of the insane, and, most of all, the incomprehensible suffering of their victims! show less

I came for Robert Frost and honestly I don’t regret it at all! There are probably two stories I didn’t like but the rest I loved them. The last one was surprisingly good and the end shocked me!
Great collection of short, horror stories. Read the full review on my blog, Reading,Reading & Life
