Review – I’ve followed Adam Ellis since he was at Buzzfeed and I’ve always loved his comics. This collection of horror stories has just made me more of a fan. I loved not just the spooky stories, but the personal touch after each story that explains the inspiration behind each one.

As a child of the 90s I grew up on Are You Afraid of the Dark? and Goosebumps, later graduating to fun horror movies like Scream and Urban Legends. This comic collection reminded me so much of quintessential 90s horror. The stories are scary enough to stick in your mind, but have just enough camp to make you chuckle. I loved the twist Adam put on classic horror stories like the Green Ribbon and his originals are unsettling in the best way.

If you’re a fan of Adam’s previous work and of horror, this will be a great book for you.
