I’m a sucker for horror short stories. I was super excited about this. But I was severely disappointed. Literally all of these are just creepy pastas from Reddit. I did how everything tied together but I really wish these were better written. Very mediocre, almost writing exercises. 9 s 300+ reader25 5

Worth reading

A great book to read as a filler for either time in between longer novels or to kill time here and there.7 s Lewis45 4

I don't know how to review this book.

It wasn't very good. Was REALLY boring! But was kind of funny to read. To watch Blair try to scare. Hey! That rhymed!!

Well. All you need to know is it's a enjoyable pleasure read. If your bored here's something to laugh at. And if you get really scared at 'scary' books, This is a book that will not scare you!

Do NOT judge a book by its cover!!!!

About a girl I'm pretty sure. she goes through a lot. Dies a lot. Does some really 'weird' things..........

HINT HINT!

And a lot of non-scary stuff happens!

Soy fan de las antologias, porque es una gran manera de descubrir nuevos autores.
Por momentos disfrute de esta antologia, pero es una antologia de microrelatos y entonces cuando las historias quieren llegar a lo maximo y despegar, tienen en realidad un final abrupto, lo cual es una lastima, porque varios relatos tienen potencial. Hay una gran variedad de tematicas, y si tenes una gran imaginacion, podria ser una actividad divertida imaginar como continuan las historias.
No mucho mas para agregar, microrelatos, microreseña.

Huge Collection

This collection of horror shorts needs A LOT of editing but beneath all that there are some really good stories. Creative, fun and great for Halloween. These stories take ordinary parts of human life and turn them into nightmares you won't soon forget. 3 s Teresa1,745 17

I am not a big fan of short stories so never try to read a book of them a novel.

I read a few, then read something else, then go back and repeat.

These were really short but pretty good stories with many being tied to previous ones.

All in all, a very enjoyable collection of stories. 4 s Lolapaige189

Nice collection

A nice collection of super short stories. There were only a couple I didn't . I think I would have enjoyed a few of them a bit more had they been expanded on a bit. But definitely worth the read.1 Michelle41 1 follower

Excellent collection of stories!

Very well written and engrossing anthology. Some great scares and I love the Black Widow Inc stories. I'll be looking forward to reading more from this author. 2 s Cassi78 2

I went into this book expecting some sort of cheesy ghost stories, but I left utterly satisfied and spooked. Yes, admittedly, some stories are cheesy, and made me laugh more than shudder. But a majority of them are very good, some heart breaking, some scary, some disturbing. It's a good mix of different plots, each unique and entertaining. Some I could read in the dark without a problem, while others I had to pop on a light and shut my door.

The writing is solid, good use of imagery, good characters, and as I said, fine and unique plots. The stories are never too long that you grow bored, waiting for the next one, in fact some I felt were too short, and I was left going "that was IT?", which is always a fun feeling to have when you're reading. Though you don't get to know the characters well in the few pages you have with them, they are well written, and can evoke emotion from you (for example, one parent in a story I will not name, made me so angry I wanted to shout at the book). It's a fun, refreshing read in between your big novels, and I feel as though this author is one to keep my eye on. Their imagination reaches far and wide, and I was never bored when reading along. Go in expecting a good spook, but don't be upset when you come across the one or two that make you roll your eyes and stifle a laugh, just because they're not scary, doesn't mean they're not well done. I gave this book five stars because it kept me entertained all throughout, and it never lacked in the quality of its writing.

So good! Lots of stories got chill up my spine! Just don't read them in dark!300-to-499-pages halloween-story1 Jonathan95

A satisfying collection of stories

While some of the stories were hit or miss, overall I really enjoyed this book. In general they were quick reads so you could easily pick up the book whenever you a few moments. While most of the stories were independent of eachother, I really d how they were subtly related at the same time. I am definitely interested in book two!1 dutch81

WOW

I'm differently getting Don't Scream book 2 , Really a enjoyable and great reading stories, A MUST READ BOOK, dutch.1 LORRIE3,490 52

Fantatic

These tales were fantastic, creepy and entertaining. I loved all the different angles of fear and shock. I hope to find more this1 Billie5,706 68

I picked up a hitchhiker.
Now I’m not sure I’ll get home alive.
I finally bought my own Airpods. I hear something terrifying when I wear them.
Today, I looked in the mirror... for the first time in 10 years.
Do NOT read a book called “Goodnight, Precious” to your children.
DON’T SCREAM brings you 60 terrifying tales for your darkest nights. This collection has every flavor of horror, from heinous murders to secret rooms, from sinister virtual realities to unexplainable mysteries. Read... if you dare.

This is a wonderful collection of short horror stories.
Each one is super creepy in it's own special way.
I love the characters that have been created for each one.
Love the plot and story lines and they are written so well that you just have to keep reading no matter how creeped out you get.
Each one has a fear that some of us can relate to at some point and time in our life.
Recommend Reading!!

You must read this book!

I came across this on Amazon and said to myself: "What the heck, I do enjoy short scary stories." I gotta say, Blair Daniels did fantastic in this book. I had a lot of fun reading each story. Some were quite scary and even thrilling. Each story contains a deep dark world of her own imagination and I really enjoyed each one. I even loved how she did the ending that caught me in surprise. I'm happy that I decided that day and purchased it. It's worth the read and can't wait to get part two along with her other books. I recommend this one if you are really into scary stories such as myself. I would even to have her place a story in my own book I'm working on. :) Again, great book!random-books1 AndrewAuthor 7 books4

An excellent collection of (very) short stories. While not all of them were perfect, the good certainly outweighs the bad, and the connective tissue between some of them (which I originally thought were either Easter Eggs or just the author throwing them in there for the hell of it) actually came together rather nicely in the end. If you your horror short, sweet, and to the point, then I highly recommend this collection.1 NorthernBear52 1 follower

This book is a series of uninspiring, quick, little horror stories. These are more concepts than anything really and since they’re so short (There's 60 crammed into on book after all), it’s either frustrating to get into one only for it to abruptly end or I end up feeling I wasted my time entirely when I don't get into it. Basically, these are a waste of time.

Short stories can be a bit of a mixed bag but most of these are pretty solid. There’s some plot points that come back up in a few stories but they’re stand alone for the most part. I would often read one of the stories to my horror loving mom and they went over well.

One story is a weird Billie Eilish real person fanfic though which was creepy in the wrong way. I don’t know wtf Blair Daniels and that story’s co-author Craig Groshek were thinking but it was in poor taste.1 Michele BardsleyAuthor 195 books1,449

You Can Scream If You Want To...

...because this collection of delightfully dark tales will give you thrills and chills. Blair Daniels is a new favorite author of mine and DON'T SCREAM showcases why she's a rising star in the horror genre. I highly recommend!

Don’t read late at night in the dark

(With an ebook reader)
Some of these stories are genuinely scary. Short, sharp, and with a punch. There are A few dark pervading themes. Someone there that you suddenly realise shouldn’t be. Weren’t there just four people a minute ago. Ahhh. Spooky. A good fun read.1 Christina75 8

This book of short stories succeeded in giving me the major creeps and kind of scaring me at times lol. I enjoyed almost all of the stories. They gave off major Black Mirror / Twilight Zone / CreepyPasta vibes. 10/10 highly recommend! 1 Doretha Bradley367

Not terrifying but interesting

Victoria's Road and Hitman with a Heart are my favorites. These stories were quick, detailed and entertaining. I enjoyed the stories and I'm sure you will too. 1 Eric and Rachel 5 14

A decent anthology of short stories. all anthologies it is hit or miss, but most of the stories are enjoyable. It is less horror and more creepy or unnerving and can make you think about what you would do in those situations.1 Jessada Karnjana508 5

This is a hard pass. Never ever pick this book up because it is worse than a collection of creepypastas on the internet.

If I am going to continue to read this book, it will be drawn out till the end of time before I finish it.1 Chelsea Renee Trevino162 15

Some stories were overall creepy enough to be 5 stars, others felt a creative writing piece I pushed out in high school, but in general, I d it! It was a nice break in the reading I’ve been doing lately…hopefully this series will pull be out of a reading slump. 1 Sarah179 36

DNF - not only were the stories not scary, but they were not well written either. Couldn’t find the drive to finish it. 1 Mina MacGabhann62 22

Boring and predictable

Waste of time.
Boring and predictable. I can honestly say I'm glad I didn't buy this one. Extremely disappointed with this collection 1 Deloris3

I actually enjoyed these stories. I actually couldn't put this down. It was a fun and fast read. Some of them were kinda cheesy.1 Kevin O'Hanlon5
