Book Four is, I warn, far more gruesome than the previous three - far more 'Grimmsian'. I call this, with caution, 'The Family' issue. These stories cut close to the bone of life: our internal conflicts, our demons, our dark sides - that little bit of wickedness that most of us, thankfully, are able to keep a lid on. A good horror story will ensure you arrive at the end of it alone and in a place that leaves you slightly altered and probably too afraid to turn around. For that thing you fear, even on a warm sunny day, is never very far away... And we have a string of eleven little nightmares that are sure to delight your ghoulish minds:
Carly Holmes' macabre, Dropped Stitches, resonates with Grimms' and is the story of a girl born with an extra two fingers on each hand, born to a mother without four of hers...
Mordechai Lazarus' Butcher's Stump is a horrifying tale of religious piety, folkloric in narrative, the story of a Butcher and his son that uncovers the chilling consequences of rebelling against your parent's wishes - and being caught out...
Subashini Navaratnam's disturbing tale of motherhood, nods to far Eastern mythologies and folklore - beware of those assuming the female form, the shape shifters we must be careful of around these parts. Horror at its best.
Nigel Jarrett's ghost story tells of 'bringing back' more than you find as strange occurrences unfold during an archaeological dig. Something else wanted to be found...
Kirstin Mackenzie Berge's story, Susan, of a statue at the centre of a child's game. Those stories that are passed down through generations - those dares we set with the things we are told to fear - by what, or whom, we don't know, that's just the way it's always been and we've all been that child afraid to look, afraid to turn around...
Drew Buxton's, Bat Boy, set on a remote farm in America will have you suspended in a state of tension to the very end. Beware of bats falling from the sky...
Matt Milone's, The Bereaved, is a highly evocative and deeply moving tale of a future where the dead aren't buried...
Louise Lloyd's, Mortuus Sum, where a young boy playing alone near a mausoleum by his house, loses his ball. When he retrieves it, he finds more than just the ball, a spectre pursues...
A.S. Ford's, Burking, explores the grubby world of Victorian graverobbers.
Chris Lambert's peculiar and clever story, The Patient, where a husband believes his wife might actually be a ghost. Tip: paying attention has never been so important...
E.M. Edwards, House on Sea Street, tells the tale of an old sea captain's haunting...
All of these stories will haunt you, and some will likely keep you awake at night so perhaps we might consider: there are far more horrors, far more to fear in the living, than the dead and there is much to be afraid of in those we call our 'family', it seems.

Like it was written by George Santos
Received an Advanced Reader Copy from a friend. I am an avid true crime reader and upon completion I question if the author is credible. The timeline does not add up for his age and the times of his alleged involvement in organized crime. Some of the things in the book he is alleged to have said and done I remember almost word for word from movies I had previously watched. He literally stole a scene from the movie the accountant with Ben Affleck and said that he did it. I did a little research after completing the book and learned that this author was also claiming in 2010 that he was a long time member of the Bloods Gang. That coupled with the above leads me to believe that it is nothing more than fantasy. Do not waste your time or money

What a difficult story to tell. I appreciate the honesty and vulnerability. Definitely made me think.
I had hopes for this book but was not expecting what I would read within the pages. If your kink is deplorable grammar, incoherent sentences, and inconsistent messages, then this book is for you. At first, I thought the book I received was not the book I ordered. But as I dived in, it was very confusing. I would not recommend this book to anyone
There are not many reviews on the internet for this book. In researching the many stores selling the book, it was self-published which makes a lot of sense. The online description is written perfectly, so reading the actual book was very difficult. Pages two and three are written clearly as well as the table of contents. Pages 155 and 156 are also written logically.
It appears this book was written, then sent through a program like “Grammarly.” Once completed it seems it was published without being re-read or edited. The first clue was the title narrative that used “Has” instead of “As.” The table of contents is one page off from what it shows on pages four though seven. Many of the “q’s” are written as “[]”
Below are some examples of what was within the pages of this book written verbatim:
“Chains & Discipline/ Domination & entry/ Sadism & Masochism (BDSM) is a wide classification of bed room play.” Page 9
“When bringing up the topic of chains, you are actually asking a person to offer you their depend on, their flexibility, and also possibly their suggestion of security in exchange for sensual/sexual enjoyment, power-play, and also feasible re-evaluation of your very own connection.” Page 39
“Techni[]ue can take a selection of kinds and also be as easy or facility as you pick to (new paragraph) bargain for your details scenario” Page 52
“BDSM stands for chains as well as entry, technique and also supremacy as well as sadism and also masochism.” Page 125
“SHELF means Risk Aware Consensual Kink.” Page 130
“Approval is whatever.” Page 152
“your twist isn’t my twist, yet your twist is OKAY.” Page 153
“You can be a top, base, or button” Page 153
Good service, good book. Just what I was looking for! Thank you!
