Rate this book
Welcome to horror happy hour…

Two greedy brothers receive a chilling surprise when they try to take advantage of a homeless man. Something in the backyard wrecks vengeance when burglars break into a family's secluded home. And poker night takes a different turn when one of the players fall victim to murder…

Have a seat, warm yourself by the fire, and enjoy a drink at Hannigan’s, the tavern of a thousand tales. This sinister collection presents twelve brand new bone-chilling tales, each one guaranteed to send a shiver down your spine.

But why stop with just one? When the sun goes down, the Hannigan’s happy hour begins. Two screams for the price of one. Or is it three? Maybe four?

For this ghoulish crowd, the thirst for fear is never-ending. And when it comes to shrieks of terror on this cold winter night, well, you know what they say.

The more, the merrier…

Scare Street presents an assortment of tales that are guaranteed to keep you up at night and make you beg for more. Using Hannegan's Bar as the hub, these stories branch out to touch places in the human psyche better left untouched.
The talented group of authors who contribute to these anthologies never seem to run out of original material. It is refreshing to know that every new volume of these anthologies will be fresh and new. Yeah, there are ghosts and demons and all manner of creepy-crawlies, but they don't act as expected. That's what makes these books special.

Volume 5

I borrowed this book with my Kindle unlimited subscription and I'm leaving an honest review here. Volume 5 has so many great authors with each story you just get wrapped up in the book. what I love is how it just keeps your mind running and your heart racing. To try to pick just one story out of this book is virtually impossible because ALL of them had you looking over your shoulder. Thom is one of my favorite narrators hee just brings each character alive. great book loved it and recommend it very highly.

Twelve tantalizingly terrifying tales to scare you senseless and inspire constantly looking over your shoulder. Some of these silently creep up on readers, making us wonder "what really just happened? Did I really read that?" Others jump in to Horror feet first. All are terrifying and wildly imaginative. Just remember to read in the daytime, and not while alone.

Oh good gracious! These stories keep getting better and better! I may say that about all these anthologies, but the books seriously leave me wanting more! I could not wait to sit down with this one, and it was over before I was ready!

These stories will keep you on the edge of your seat, and you will not want to read these in the dark! Fabulously done, and the narrator as always does a fantastic job.

Bring on Tavern of Terror vol 6!!!

I was so into this anthology. So many demons were in this volume I loved it. Then the story at the end was super gory and I wasn’t expecting it. Finally got to see how hannigans came to be and who the illustrious owner was and how he obtained the tavern.Was fabulous I thoroughly enjoyed listen to this audiobook. The narrator again did a phenomenal job with the characters and everything in between.

Where everybody knows?

Several creepy stories are included in this visit to the tavern, some more unsettling than others. We even get to meet the owner for the first time.
