to restate what everyone else has already said, the art is beautiful. like it really popped off that hard for the conclusion??? wow. but a few of the stories were too open-ended for my liking

Eerie and beautifully illustrated, this graphic anthology reads like the dark twin of a beloved bedtime story. It will leave you feeling haunted in your own home yet hungry for more. On a critical note though, the cast of main characters is decidedly monotonous.

Through the Woods is a fast read with 5 creepy short stories that take place in the woods. It's spooky, but not overly scary. The artwork is beautiful! My favorite stories are: A Lady's Hands Are Cold and The Nesting Place. I wish I had this graphic novel as a kid because I would've told theses stories at sleepovers.
