An excellent anthology of extremely short horror stories by popular authors. I loved this book and I'm 35. Most of the stories are quite creepy and morbid--my favorite!
This collection of very short scary stories and comics features an array of authors that will be familiar to many. The stories range from truly terrifying to laugh-out-loud funny and everywhere in between. There's something to appeal to everyone here and since the stories are VERY short, it's easy to breeze through one that doesn't do it for you. The book includes stories by R.L. Stine, Neil Gaiman, Lemony Snickett, Erin Hunter, Adam Rex, and many, many more. I can see kids passing this book around and reading their favorites to each other at sleepovers. It will not go amiss with fans of Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark.
Hat mir nicht gefallen. Viele Geschichten waren viel zu abrupt; und es gab keinerlei Atmosphäre.
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this book. It's a great find! I happened across it at B&N a couple years back and it quickly became one of my absolute favorites. I've never found a better book for quick read-alouds at school to get kids in the spooky Halloween spirit. They love to hear the stories. There are a few entries I'm not incredibly fond of, but for the most part this book is full of wonderfully scary and literally half-minute horror stories.
This book was awesome for a once-a-week, "Horrific Friday Bell-Ringer" in 7th grade ELA, or you could do one every day in October!
Each slip corresponds to a very short story, and there are three slips per page. There are 35 slips, one for each Friday of the school year, or you can do them once a day during the month of October.
The book has more than 70 short stories, and could easily be adapted for 35 more bell-ringers, but many stories I rejected as either too long (they took more than 1 minute to read) or too gruesome, based on my classes' maturity levels.
I bought a class copy of the books. Each Friday, I put them on students' desks. Students got a slip and found the story they were to read. We set a timer for 30 seconds, sometimes 1 minute (if the story was more than a page) and they read silently. They had 2-3 minutes to complete the one or two question Bell-Ringer.
Students then were given 1 minute to discuss their answers with their tablemates or a row partner - perhaps the "funnest" part of the exercise - and then I called on two or three to share out with the class.
My students loved doing these, and "Horrific Friday" became something they looked forward to!
The bellwork questions touch on ELA CC standards for point-of-view, citing textual evidence, figurative language, more!

Some of these stories actually made my skin crawl, and left me feeling paranoid, despite it being a children's book. I really enjoyed it!

This book consists of 72 stories and it took me about an hour to read it. There was nothing really outstanding in it but I don't feel my time or money was wasted. It was a quick, fun read.
Estas pequeñas historias son muy interesantes, había algunas que no daban tanto miedo pero otras que me dejaban sin aliento. Recomendado.
