Be Still: Tales of Terror

Rate this book
Trick-or-treating comes with rules in our town.

My house grows new rooms when the lights are out.

Take a photo of your kid. You never know when he will come back... different.


I’m a lifeguard. There’s someone who won’t get out of the deep end of the pool.

BE STILL has every flavor of horror, from ghosts in the library to horrible prophecies, from creepy funhouses to liminal parking lots. Read... if you dare.

Praise for the Tales of Terror series
"Wonderfully chilling tales which bring to mind old Stephen King."

"Blair Daniels is an amazing storyteller."

"Genuine creepypasta vibes, disturbing moments hitting all the right spots, even if you read the book in one sitting!"

"Blair Daniels' work needs to be translated to the screen. Goosebumps for grown-ups. Think Ray Bradbury, Richard Matheson, Charles Beaumont, even a little M.R. James (especially in this volume), with a distinctly modern woman's voice."

A really good read!

These short stories, as you would expect, did vary in quality but they were all enjoyable. Some were really spooky, if not downright scary.

The book can be read at one sitting and would be an ideal companion on a train or plane journey. It's well worth a read.

A Must Read!

Irrespective of everything around me I found myself so entranced by these short stories that I was unable
to put my Kindle down. If you,
family or friends enjoy books that send a momentary chill down your spine I highly recommend this read. You won’t be disappointed. This is the second (2nd) book I’ve read by Blair Daniel& w/100% certainty will continue enjoying the chills which creep down my spine😂

Daniels: Be Still: Tales of Terror.

Above average book of horror stories. Like in all collections, some individuals are better than others. They range in length (shortest are best!). -- All of the stories are remarkably creative. I didn't sense plot retreads or overlapping characters. Worth a read.

Terrifying Tales

Blair Daniels has done it again.
This a a slim volume of very scary short stories that grab you from page one and won't let go until the final page is turned.
I've been a fan of this talented author for quite a few years now, and her books keep me coming back!

Well… most of these stories seem unfinished and disappointing.

It starts good and creepy as the title lures you in but you hardly get anything, it’s like getting the 2025 target swag bag without a single promise delivered.

I found the stories a bit repetitive. They read as if they were told by the same character in almost all the stories. Some of the concepts were quite interesting, but I wish they were pushed further.
