3.0
Here is a brief bit about each one that I read:
Murielle Cyr-Class Reunion
A pupil from June's past arrives to ruin her chance of promotion.
I liked this one. June was a real bitch to her pupils and staff and you want her to get what she deserves. Nicely told and developed (3 star)
Danielle DeVor-Dawn
Something evil is chasing a boy and he is 'saved' by a werewolf.
I liked the tension filled start then it kinda fizzled out a bit. OK I guess (2 star)
Wodke Hawkinson-Death hates his job
The Grim Reaper becomes depressed over his role in people's lives and is shown how important he is.
It was a bit like a twisted form of It's a Wonderful Life. Ok. (2 star)
Simon Okill-Nightmare Circus
I'm still trying to work out what the hell this was about. It seemed a very confusing mix of dreams about a circus, a circus psycho gameshow and torture. It jumps around so much that I couldn't work out what was going on. (1 star)
Lucy Pireel-Hunger
The coven test a new recruit on a mission to the city to see if he defeats temptation.
This one has potential and had an interesting concept. Decent read. (2.5 stars)
Chad Huskins- Jesse came to the dead tree
Nobody believes that Hannah ever existed but Jessie knows that the garden tree took her and goes out for answers.
This was a creepy little tale with a nice twist. (2.5 stars)
Berk Washburn-Millie
Millie faces a night in the house alone with someone trying to break in.
This one was ok but so predictable. The twist was no surprise. (2 stars)
JJ Toner-The Perfect Woman
A scientist creates the perfect woman in a lab but he is not her perfect man.
Creepy, intriguing Frankenstein twist. Decent read. (3 stars)
JC Eggleton-The blight moon dark lords club
A first outing into society for the Ice Queen is not a success.
Boring posh club setting with bland characters. (1 star)
Tony Gilbert-The Clearing
Um, weird story about dying birds sucking the life out of people with creepy guy doing something? Bizarre, odd and boring. (1 star)
Billy Ray Chitwood-The Closet
The bedroom closet in a man's dream home is a place where aliens can abduct.
Sounds weird but this was a clever little story that I enjoyed. (3 star)
Ann Swann-The Fee
The cost of a fertility deal with the devil.
This was a creepy, atmospheric story that was enjoyable with a nice twist. (3 star)
PJ Perryman-The land of Nobel
A weird story about a deserted gas station sucking people into another dimension. (1 star)
Michelle Brown-The Maid
Weird and bizarre sci-fi about an infected spaceship and strange employee. (1 star)
Oscar Wager II-The Mansion
A poem? It wasn't good either. (1 star)
Joe Pringle-The old oak tree
Average story of a girl making contact with ghosts. (2 star)
Thomas Ryan-The Wooden Chest
Two kids travel to grampa's house and discover the family secret.
I really liked this one! You don't mess with grampa! (3.5 star)
Claude Nougat-Wrong Move
Boring family story. (1 star)
Lauren Scharhag-Zombie Anonymous
A group of zombies who rediscovered their emotions after a semi-cure meet at a self help group.
An intriguing read that I would like to see developed into a proper novella or novel. This has real potential. (3 star)
