Thanks to the Netgalley and the publisher for the ARC on this book.

Halloween Carnival is a collection of short and one not so short Halloween inspired stories. None of the stories are all that long except for the last one #MAKEHALLOWEENSCARYAGAIN which takes up the entire second half of this short 123-page book. None of the stories really read as horror except for two of the stories which were La Hacienda de los Muertos. and #MAKEHALLOWEENSCARYAGAIN which were my over all favorites of the book.

The reason I couldn't give this a higher rating was I had a really hard time getting into a few of the stories because of either the writing or the plot I found really underwhelming and had to kind of power my way through both Strange Candy and Demon Air.

I would recommend this book for people that are fans of more spooky fun Halloween short stories.
