This book delivers bite-sized chills perfect for younger readers venturing into the world of horror. With haunted objects, cursed places, and eerie creatures, each tale is packed with classic spooky themes that evoke the nostalgic vibe of Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. While the formatting could use improvement—paragraph spacing can make reading a bit confusing—and some stories may feel a bit short or underdeveloped, the overall tone is engaging and age-appropriate for middle-grade audiences (ages 9–12). It's a great read-aloud option for parents and kids who enjoy mild scares without diving too deep into intense horror. With a few tweaks and maybe some illustrations, this collection could really shine. For now, it’s a fun, fast-paced entry point for young horror fans looking for a thrill before bedtime.
