What an exceptional collection! The first four tales in the collection range from themes of a creature feature to haunted dolls to being trapped in another world. The rest of the tales in the collection have more of a gothic flavor, and are so beautiful and haunting. I adored every single one. I especially love the range of women’s and girls’ experiences, fears, and perspectives explored here.

Out of print for years until recently (thanks to the Paperbacks From Hell series) this collection of 13 short weird horror stories by Lisa Tuttle is absolutely essential.

Writing up my review for SCREAM Mag now but if you desire a collection of feminist horror, all stories involving a female protagonist in various disturbing situations...this one is for you.

Phenomenal collection of stories available for the first time in the US thanks to Valancourt Books via their Paperbacks From Hell collaboration with Grady Hendrix. If you like Ira Levin's domestic descents into horror that take you from somewhere familiar and comfortable to somewhere strange and dreadful, this book is an ideal pairing.
