I liked it. I wish I knew what the little sprout was. It creeped me out at some parts but just the right amount. Queer horror is definitely my genre, and I'm not sure who recommended this one to me but they were right.

Maybe I don't know enough of Slavic folklore to find these stories chilling.

Did not dig its teeth into me the way Red X did but still an enjoyable read. Gave me a lot of folklore bits to toy around with in my head, which I needed.

Unsettling selection of intertwined short horror pieces about eastern European folklore. At times it got a little graphic and I found that jarring when that wasn't usually the style, but overall it was a nice creepy collection.
