Borderline 4 star, and if you like Chuck’s work I think it’s some of his best from what I’ve read- I just wish a) he’d focused on/expanded a few of the better stories and b) gotten rid of/changed the frame story. Those names are just- what? Mrs. Sneezy? Mate, I can’t take your realistic horror/gore seriously if you’re gonna Snicket it the rest of the time. There was some legitimately gross imagery here, some of the plots really do work, but the book is just too scattered and back and forth with the nonsense name backdrop. Somethin about writers locked in a house, idk. They die and tell stories. It’s all very vague and I just read it. Some of the lack of focus is on me, but it’s also way more fractured than it should be. Just share the scary stories, if you’re gonna frame it frame it well, because some of the writing was actually scary af, it’s just surrounded by too much meh.
