If you enjoyed Spooklights or High Strange Horror, you'll see many familiar names in this collection. Similarly, if you dip into independent/small press horror leaning towards the weird and bizarro, you may also recognize some names here.
I would also say, if you like gore, or just video games, this should be a fun collection to peruse. While some gems such as J.R. Hamantaschen's 'I'm a Good Person, I Mean Well, and I Deserve Better' and Orrin Grey's 'The Drunkard's Dream' have some significantly darker psychological underpinnings for the dedicated reader to dig in to, one can easily read it and the likes of 'Reset', 'Dr. Coagulant's Splatter Lab', and 'Angels' Armageddon' as fun romps filled with video game references and all the blood and meat you can handle. A quick read despite its size, due mainly to font and typeset, pick it up and find some authors to fall in love with then seek out their collections!
