Each story is guaranteed to send chills down your back and make your blood run cold. With one chilling tale for each night in the month of October, you won’t want to go out trick-or-treating this Halloween. So turn off the lights, crawl into your beds and begin to read, if you think you can survive.

[Jeff Sovich · Rating 2 out of 5]

Sadly, the stories in this collection of short horror fiction are pretty forgettable and amareurish. Worse yet, the audiobook I listened to was a low quality production with an uninspired reader.
