There's a decent peek into some aspects of indigenous/Native culture in these stories, and they're incredibly short, so even the ones that don't speak to a given reader will go quickly. No happy endings here. Some classic horror vibes for sure. My favorite was the werewolf story.
The writing is a little distracting in some of them: no variety in sentence lengths, or a "tell don't show" method of exposition, or characters who don't make sense in the story.
