5.0

As always an excellent collection, this one with double the punch in terms of the number of works included. In awe of the creativity, imagination, and sense of dread/forboding/horror (I can't quite pin down the right term) that went into each of these stories.

In particular, Chelsea Davis' Advice I Wish I'd Been Given When I Was a 12-Year-Old Girl about to Watch The Exorcist for the First Time was a 2 page HEAVY hitter that should be required reading. I want to mention the fantastic artwork as well. Extremely well done and really added to my enjoyment of this read. Thanks to all the authors and the crew at Grimscribe Press for another great one!
