Humor's not for me. Chuckles were let out rarely. A lot of the stories here are known to me prior to reading as I love weird facts and stories.

I didn't enjoy this book as much as Felton's others, perhaps because there wasn't a common theme tying together each short chapter whereas the previous books had been along a particular theme, like The Sun's worst stories. Having said that, each individual chapter was entertaining, taking interesting and unusual stories and telling them in an irreverant and silly way. I'd heard of a few of these stories before but Felton's style of writing still added something to them.

Una serie de historias más o menos dantescas, grotescas o absurdas sobre costumbres pasadas como los juicios medievales por masturbación, accidentes horribles o fenómenos estrambóticos. Ameno, y he sacado material para añadir a alguna charla.
