Once again Horowitz has done it for me. More horrific stories that were just as good as the first book.

The Hitchhiker: This was a great way to start things off. This story was creative and just crazy and insane.
The Sound of Murder: This story went all out with the whole chase scene at the end. Not really my fave but still an interesting story.
Burned: This was a gross story but an unfortunate one. Still good.
Flight 715: I always get Harriet's Horrible Dream from the first book mixed up with this story. A girl has a premonition on something terrible that would have happened.
Howard's End: Ha! This story was freaky and good.
The Lift: A mystery story on the disappearance of a boy on an elevator. Really good!
The Phone Goes Dead: Interesting short story. I liked how it made a full turn, in a way.
Twist Cottage: I thought this story was the funniest one, it was just weird and different.
The Shortest Horror Story Ever Written: Ah, another one of these stories. Where the narrator is planning on murdering you after you finish reading the story. After you read it you might think 'yeah right', but then something just always makes you look over your shoulder or in your closet or outside your window, just in case. What I thought was so creative is that (and then the phone rings as I'm typing this) if you take the first letter of each sentence and put it together it spells out what the maniac's intentions are.

So, my fave stories were The Hitchhiker, Howard's End, The Lift, and Twist Cottage.
