Summary: Just the Right Amount of Humor and Gore
Review: I don't know how they dreamed up this concept, but it sure is fun. Just the right combination of humor and gore. At times the stories are really creepy with fright-night "zingers" sprinkled in here and there. The music is non-stop and definitely sets the spooky and intense atmoshpere. After the first cut, "Transformation", an all out thriller about a guy turning into a werewolf, my two favorites were "Quite Child" and "Parasites". Each story crept under my skin more powerful than any Twilight Zone episode. Again, I think it was the string music which really sets the tone. Thumbs up for a musical story telling feat!!

Summary: Bad Buy
Review: I got this on the hope of hearing some actually scary stories. Instead, I got a bunch of drivel that isn't even suitable for children. The only slightly interesting one was Transformation, but even it lacked any real story line (and the ending was laughable). The others where just inane in general with their plots, imagery, and readings.

Summary: Bite size little horrors of scary fun
Review: This little horror fest of scary short stories will entertain you without fail. I bought volume 1 on a whim and I am glad I did. While the stories themselves at times are a little too amateurish they will nevertheless make you check your back to see if there is any creepy crawly coming at you or a ghost has suddenly appeared. The CD is best listened to in the dark and with earphones on. There are five stories in all covering everything from curses to werewolves to creatures in the night. I really enjoyed listening to the CD and can't wait to listen to volume 2. This audiobook contains one CD and the text is read by a variety of readers; great incidental music and sound design accompany the narrations. Highly recommended.
