Sorry More like a bunch of story outlines. No meat to any of the stories

I gave up after the 6th one. They just weren't getting any better. Lots of cliches to try and gross you out like slimy walls and the usual with no real story content. I was surprised because the book has good reviews. The writers need to read something like Clive Barker's Books Of Blood or other master short storytellers to get an idea. But just my humble opinion. I really hate leaving poor reviews, but tired of my time being wasted on stories that don't deliver

Well edited.
I read horror shorts to get to sleep. Suffering chronic pain and insomnia for years with no end in sight, reading is a balm. Horror and scifi, paranormal, fantasy, any combination of these drizzled with some historical facts is really important to keep interest.
This book overall was a weak read. I gave 4 because I didn't notice any grammatical or spelling errors, that always makes me regret putting money on. I understand it's hard to make up new stories and exceptionally hard to make a truly unique story interesting enough to remember by the end of the book so I give stars for effort. I'm not sure there was very much put into this one.
Sorry, no scares here.

A terrific anthology of scary short stories by A.I. Nasser, David Longhorn, Sara Clancy and Ron Ripley. The stories are scary, but they are not horror scary. They are a nice kind of scary. So if you like a book that’s a little scary and suspenseful, then you’ll love this book. I’m a horror fan. Not a scary fan.

Not really sure what to think. Most really good books that have awesome stories will stick out in my mind for a while after reading it. To be quite honest, it took me forever to read this book, because one, I lost interest fairly quickly, and two, I lost interest fairly quickly. I am a little upset about that. From most of my previous reviews, I mention my vivid imagination. Readers like me have to be captivated. This book just didn't do it for me. Three stars is for the last story that did stick out in my mind and I will remember for a while. I will try the second book in this series but if that one is dry too, I won't be reading any more of these titles. Here we go!!

Creepy

Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2021

Pretty good and creepy. Most of the stories are great, and I've read many in the series. My only complaint is Ron Ripley. He usually has more than one story in each anthology, but I wish he wasn't in them at all..every one of his stories are extremely predicable, boring, and just cheesy. I just can't get into anything by him, and I've tried. So I will just skip his stories from here on out, it just sucks because he takes up a good amount of pages in each. If he runs them, then just stick to editing them please. But the rest are decent.

Good but not what I expected

Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2019

I only pick four star because the stories weren't quite as scary as I thought they would be. Don't get me wrong some of them definitely sent chills down my spine but there weren't quite enough spine chiller story's for me to date a five star. Will I read it again? Most definitely! I feel though as if teens would find this scarier though. I'm still pretty excited to read the next book!

10 completely different horror stories

Reviewed in the United States on June 16, 2020

Verified Purchase

I don't normally read short stories, and definitely not 10 in a row. This book was a nice departure for me. Each story had me on edge waiting for what would happen. For the most part they would all make great full length novels, or even movies (if not already done). The only book I was not a fan of was the one about the novelist. The pretentious and British writing style threw me off and I couldn't get into it. I read this complete book in a few hours over two days so definitely a quick read. I wasn't scared off my rocker, but it held my interest. No goriness in case you are interested so I'd call this PG for horror. I'd recommend.

A fantastic collection of creepy and suspenseful horror stories by talented authors. The storylines and ideas were inventive and I enjoyed the different characters. I can’t choose a favourite story as I enjoyed them all equally. I will definitely check out the other Scare Street anthologies.

I only read the first few stories. Only reason I have it such a poor review is that I'm just not a fan of short stories. If you find them enjoyable totally disregard this review
