Night Terrors Vol. 9: Short Horror Stories Anthology
Polluted waters unleash a bloodthirsty terror in a small Ontario town. A father and daughter seek sanctuary in an old village church, only to discover that evil knows no bounds. And insanity plagues a young girl, as she struggles to prove the monster in her basement is not a figment of her imagination…
Evil is unleashed in Scare Street’s latest bone-chilling collection of supernatural horror. Fourteen tales of terror lurk within this new volume—more than enough to give even the bravest soul a reason to fear the night.
As your eyes flutter open, you can still see dark images in your mind… Horrifying monsters, demons, and ghouls with a hunger for human flesh. You could hear their cries, feel their razor-sharp claws against your skin. But was it real? Or was it just another bad dream?
Then you hear footsteps in the shadows beyond your bed. And a hungry howl echoes through the night once more. A chill runs down your spine.
Because this time, the nightmare is real. And it’s getting closer…

More Anger…
Another great story of Jimmy Hsu. A boy who lives in the town of Anger. Jimmy wants to search for a ghost so he asks an old neighbor for help.
Old Mr. Arnesti doesn’t have the best smell, but his house is shielded with the best protection against ghosts, demons and vampires.
They gather the weapons they will need and set out for the haunted Rose Hall. But although they came looking for a ghost, an ugly witch is what they find.
Ron Ripley tells another wonderful story about Jimmy Hsu, the little boy with a bit of autism who’s also a savant.
The other stories are wonderful, too, but this one is my favorite, again.

Latest in an unfailingly good series, a delight to the horror mind. I have a couple of favorites especially in this collection, both of which amply demonstrate that fine narrow line which divides human insanity (or the descent into same) from Supernatural terror. Don't get me wrong, I adore these two seemingly disparate modes of Horror; but when a story elicits the question "Is This a Supernatural event? Or is this character seemingly going insane? Or is it both?" That's the best, for me! I give you in particular "Black Mold" (gotta have my Fungus Horror fix) and "In Rose Hall."
Come on, horror goodies for everyone to be found right here!

A Great Series Of Books
This whole collection of books is very good. I have yet to run into a story that disappointed me. I find that I really like the Jimmy Hsu stories; I hope I run into more of them.

This series is an excellent way to showcase authors new to Scare Street, and to this reader, and this batch of stories ranks right up there with the best. Frights can be generated from lots of different things, not just the traditional ghosts, monsters and the like. I am always amazed at the level of talent these writers possess.
If you have never read any of Scare Street's offerings, do yourself a favor and do it. You won't regret it.
