Jenni Frencham (jennifrencham) I really enjoyed this graphic novel and thought the stories were just long enough to capture the attention of even reluctant readers.


Ariel Birdoff (madam_pince) I liked the book. I thought the art was spectacular and the stories were quite creepy. I think that this would be a great book for reluctant readers.


Angela Critics (quiltinglibrarian) I've been pushing this graphic novel for months to anyone who will listen. It's delightfully creepy and the art really contributes to the mood.


message 4: by Rebecca (new)

Rebecca Ann I love horror, and I may never recover from the story with the skin-jackers. The artwork took the stories to a whole new level of disturbing without getting excessively graphic. It reminded me of a more mature Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark


Lucie | 14 comments I adored this one, perfect for lovers of being creeped out without grossed out. Also, it's such a luxurious print job, with all those glossy full color pages! I will definitely be book-talking it at school visits.


Emily Childress-Campbell (ms_librarian_) Love this one! The illustrations are perfect for the tone of the stories and the creepiest part is what you don't see. Definitely agree that they are the next Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark.


message 7: by Kim (new) - rated it 4 stars

Kim (kadykayf) Sooo creepy. I read this one before it was announced as one of the Great Graphic Novels for teens. It's so creepy that I'm not sure that I actually want to read it again. I never thought about it being the next Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, but I totally agree that's what it is. Great selling point!


Julie | 26 comments Deliciously creepy. It made me think of Gidwitz's A Tale Dark & Grimm series. The artwork is definitely what makes it.


Connie Scharre (cscharre) | 25 comments This didn't move me. Very predictable.

Jmrunninglib | 26 comments Creepy, would definitely be the word I would choose for this one. I thought the art work was very good and the stories were not something that I wanted to read before bed. It goes out if I present it, but otherwise sits on the shelf.
