Horrible, vile, disgusting, and weird. An incredible selection of short stories that are so well-written, and enjoyable.

I enjoyed some in this selection, felt some were very meh, but overall enjoyed the writing and creepy factor. Def check trigger warnings because some of it can be quite graphic

This was absolutely horrific and dark with a huge TW throughout the whole book but it was also really really good, I loved the writing and I loved that the stories weren’t typical scary story narratives. It’s dark and grim but it’s great if that’s your thing!

One of the stories uses transphobic language and slurs directed at trans women in sex work.
