In general I didn't like this collection.
A lot of the same shit with violence against women and girls that is just exhausting.
Two stories I liked:
The nesters and the ostridae. I didn't really like any other stories.

Christina Delaine should cool it with the accents, yikes. James Anderson Foster was great. The cover for this audiobook shows the wrong authors for this collection (the book cover is correct)

Every story was forgettable and not scary- I liked volume 10 much more and even those were pretty mild.
Best story was the one about the horse man. It built so much suspense and had a truly terrifying creature. I just wished these stories started with more ferocity and added some timing & punch to their scary lines.

Really impressed with this collection, particularly the stories from Adam Nevill, Siobhan Carroll, Peter Straub, Gemma Files, C.E Ward, Livia Llewellyn, Rebecca Lloyd, Brian Evenson, and Ray Cluley.
Brian Hodge's excellent "On These Blackened Shores of Time" was the perfect endpiece.

Some were far better than others. I had trouble paying attention to a lot of them.
