Shadows follow you in the darkness of the night and the eerie sensation of being watched crawls up your spine.  Your sanity pulls apart at the seams as the terrors stalk their victims, leaving you too frightened to turn off the light.

These twisted stories will leave you breathless, dreading the horrors lurking around the corner.

Seventeen authors.  Seventeen tales of terror.  Infinite nightmares.

Watch your back.

You know that icky feeling that makes you itch between your shoulder blades?  You know someone is watching you. These seventeen creepy short-stories of stalkers just may have you paranoid.  From “OMG that could really happen,” to “OMG it’s a gh-gh-gh-ghost,” to “OMG what is that!”  Believe it or not, one even had a HEA!

I love short stories and this anthology of short stories is fantastic.  Short stories are perfect for when you want to read, but only have few minutes, like sitting in a waiting room.  There wasn’t a bad story in this book.  My two favorites were POWERLESS by Laurie Treacy and BLOG STALKER by Phil Taylor.

Grammar/editing:  A – near perfect
