The Haunting Hour Paperback – 30 Aug. 2011

A chilling short story collection. Loved every single story in it.

Great item

I like the different stories it provided, but I wish the pages were more inviting, it’s like something was missing. However, the content makes up for it. It’s a fab book.

Bought it for my son because he read it at school and the teacher didn't get to finish reading it to the class. So i bought it for him to read at home

Okay, full disclaimer, I am quite a bit older than the target market for this collection of stories. And I think that is why it fell a little flat for me. There are 10 stories collected in this volume, so none of them are overly long. The characters all seemed to be around 12 years old, and so again, I think this tells you of where the author is trying to hit with these tales. And, overall, this was the main issue for me: they all came across quite immature. As a way of introducing younger readers to horror as a genre, this collection does have some value. But, if you are looking for truly chilling tales, you will need to look elsewhere.
