[3.5 stars rounded down]

This is a fun little horror anthology! The art is great, and I loved that it was equal parts weird and horrifying. Horror that explores liminal spaces like motels, etc, is some of my favorite, and this didn't disappoint. I enjoyed some stories more than others and some characters more than others, but overall, but I like that each story has its own payoff and somehow connects to the other stories.

I am interested to know more about the caretaker of the motel, so hopefully that's included in later volumes.

I've already got the next collection downloaded and ready to read.

Very creepy with a surprisingly hopefully ending. Content warning for risk to pregancy

Creative horror but we don't spend enough time with any of the characters to emphasize with them or root for them. The ending is a surprise
