Dark Screams: Volume Seven by Kaaron Warren, Brian James Freeman, Brian Hodge, Robert R. McCammon, Bill Schweigart, Mick Garris, James Renner, Richard Chizmar

4.0

Dark Screams has quickly become one of my favorite Horror Anthology series of all time. I was excited not only to see a volume 7, but the name Mick Garris who wrote one of my favorite stories back in Dark Screams volume 5. So it came as no surprise to me that Snow Shadows ended up making my favorites in this volume. It opens on a cold winter's day at Ravensbrooke Youth Academy for the Arts. Miss Featherstone, the drama teacher is about to have a very dramatic moment indeed.


A Monster Comes To Ashdown Forest (IN WHICH CHRISTOPHER ROBIN SAYS GOODBYE) by James Renner brings beloved childhood characters back to gruesome life. An excellent story.


Furtherest by Kaaron Warren is a spooky summer time tale of camp fires, cook outs, and corpses. I could almost smell the Coppertone it was so well written and descriptive.


As much as I love short horror stories it's always a bit difficult for me to review them without giving too much away. So that is why I have just touched briefly on my absolute favorites.


I received an advance copy for review.
