Everyone has different tastes in stories and poetry, so not everything in this anthology will appeal to everyone. I personally found some stories and poems deeply moving and/or interesting, most mildly interesting, and one in particular extremely grating and poorly written. Overall a good read for a queer horror enthusiast.

Definitely recommend this fun anthology of queer horror short stories. Like most anthologies I didn’t love all the stories in here but I’d say my top stories/poems would be Nature’s Mistake, Gruesome my love, Glamour-us, And the moon spun round like a top, and Ghosts of pride past. I like that these stories cover a range of queer experiences and also there is a range of horror from everyday horrors to creature features and pure evil.
