Throwing Shadows: A Dark Collection by Jerry Rothwell

fast-paced

5.0

Short stories are always hit or miss for me. I usually end up wanting more as the story itself isn't fully complete or the characters are lacking somewhat. Not so with Throwing Shadows. This is a collection of 9 short stories that will definitely give you the chills and thrills wanted for Spooktober.

Each story had well written characters and never left me confused or frustrated when they ended. I did want more...but only in the sense that I wanted more stories 😂 I love being creeped out.

With the very first story I was feeling some major Tales From the Crypt vibes, which continued to the end, and I LOVED it. I mean scarecrows, the Ouija board, the ice cream man...and more. The nostalgia is real! It's old school creeptastic and spookperfect!

There is still time...go grab this and add to those Spooktober lists! I sincerely appreciate the author and Brigids Gate Press for the review copy. While a review wasn't expected, I have offered my opinion and these are my own thoughts.
