Valerie’s Reviews > The Lurking Fear: Collected Short Stories Volume 4 > Status Update

The Evil Clergyman - i enjoyed this one, but maybe just cause i disliked the ones before this story quite a bit

The Book - the same as the last kinda but i do prefer this one

The Very Old Folk - i think it was interesting, but also not very memorable

The Descendant - i think this is just forgettable

Cool Air - kinda predictable but still solid

He - I think this just kinda confused me but tbf its not bad i think i just dont get it

The Rats In The Walls -
I forgot to actually write down my thoughts on the stories before cause of lack of time. But this one is probably one of the scariest so far, it really is horrifying the more you think about it. But the cats name really threw me off :')

The Temple - I liked the setting. That's it. I didnt like the rest, the main character. Idk it felt off. I've read that it works if its viewed more like a caricature of German Soldiers, but that didn't cross my mind once while reading. Maybe if i reread it with that in mind I would enjoy it more

The Street - i think i didn't really like this as a story, but the opening and ending lines imo made it kinda cool ngl

Facts Concerning The Late Arthur Jermyn And His Family - this felt really weird to read and just read a little bit like racism, not outright but just the tones of it idk didnt like it
