This was another great volume in the 'Don't Read This Book After Dark' series. There was a lot more body horror in this one. Especially from Alice Taylor. Really, Alice Taylor, what the heck, lady? lol I'm just kidding. As gruesome as the belly button centipede story was, it was a good read. I did wince and hold my own belly button while reading it though. The snakes story was another good body horror story.
With the waiting room for hell story, I almost wondered if Sartre's play 'No Exit' was being referenced. The whole 'Hell is other people' thing. If it was was being referenced, it was subtle enough to keep me guessing, and a fun read either way.
Another favorite of mine was the haunted ocean story. I love stories that combine the nautical with the ghostly.
Overall, a really solid collection of quick, spooky reads. Almost all of the stories were unpredictable and kept me guessing until the very end, even as classic horror tropes were used. These writers are very creative and have pretty dark imaginations.
If they decide to collaborate for a third volume, I know I'll read it.
