This collection was short and sweet. The stories are very short which might put some people off, but I appreciated the Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark vibes. The stories felt similar to those ones but a bit more sophisticated: still for children but not quite as basic. This definitely isn't a collection for older readers but I found it had a lot of charm and I really enjoyed it as an adult reader knowing what I was getting in for. I can see this being a nice change of pace to read to kids before bed to introduce them to the horror genre without them being too scared by it. Some of the stories are a bit basic but others have nice touches to them. Given it was co-authored by a 12 year old, this is a decent anthology for sure.
Overall Rating:
.5
