If I Die Before I Wake: Tales of Nightmare Creatures by R.E. Sargent
4.0
Fantastic collection of stories focusing on beasts and nightmare creatures.
Some of my favorites from the collection were:
1. Scarecrow by Hannah O’Doom
A teenage girl encounters a creature who can grant every one of her wishes, giving her the edge over all of her bullies. But every wish that’s granted comes at a price. Creative and compelling.
2. Jack of Spades by Kevin M. Folliard
Nothing like a card game to pass the time. Until the Jack of Spades comes looking for blood. I thought this story was the most unique one out of the bunch. Definitely did not expect the twists and turns!
3. The Growth by Sandra Stephens
Body horror at its finest. Beautiful and haunting story of the horrors of a fungal growth gone too far.
