How customer reviews and ratings work

Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.

To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

5.0 out of 5 starsGhoulishly good time!
Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2020
4.5

Since this is probably my last review before then, ”Merry Christmas, Ya filthy animals!!” (Home Alone)

THIS is what I’m talking about! I love Christopher Golden’s work on the Buffy the Vampire Slayer’s graphic novel omnibuses! He did a FANFRIGGINTASTIC job putting this together!

There were a couple funny (I would say one comedy, the rest dark comedy) and bittersweet ones, but for the most part, these were some horror-filled good times! Out of the 18 stories, there were only two that fell flat for me (Tenents and Doctor Velocity).

Top 3: Absinthe and Angels, Honor Thy Mother, and Yankee Swap
Best Ending: Christmas in Barcelona

Buy this for yourself or someone who is not the traditionslist when it comes to Christmas. Or, if you’re twisted, get it for someone who won’t stop Fah-la-lah’ing.

4.0 out of 5 stars When you hit the weak stories, keep reading!
Reviewed in the United States on January 7, 2020

Creepy is the word and you are at the right book. With the craziness of the holiday season, a short story book is just the thing and this one is brilliant. Surprising turns go everywhere. About the middle of the book the dip in quality that comes with anthologies hit and then that last story rocked me. There are a couple (as usual) that you hear yourself going “meuh” pretty weak. Then you find yourself on the Appalachian trail with ghosts, and in an ever bending and narrowing chimney and signs are that there is something more in there than just the small chimney sweep. More than worth the admission price!

5.0 out of 5 stars If you love horror AND Christmas
Reviewed in the United States on January 31, 2020

This book was a delightful surprise! Some great stories here. The last one is worth the whole book. But almost all the others have elements of horror tied to the holiday that are well done! If you like this genre, it's worth the time!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great seasonal horror

Even the average stories in here are pretty effective. The authors are great, though some were surprising. My exposure to some of the authors were more from fantasy game tie-ins rather than horror. But they did great.

The amount of four and five star stories in this collection is way above average. I'm usually happy if all the stories average out to three stars, so I am truly amazed with this collection. Highly recommend!

If you took episodes of the twilight zone and put them into a blender with egg nog and some holiday cheer and a shot of horror, you would get this book. It was a fun read that gave me a chance to discover new horror writers.

A great variety of stories! Lovely read for the holidays. Reminded me of Tales from the Crypt, some tales will leave you with a chuckle, and others will disturb you for hours afterward. Give it a look!
