By Brandon Scott on Oct 31st, 2023

As is our tradition around here, we’ve got an extra short story for you, delivered by me, your humble Fictionmonger. And written by our usual prolific scribe, Brandon Scott.

Big Bad

Creature Feature Reviews: “Big Bad” by Chandler Baker

By Brandon Scott on Oct 30th, 2023

“Big Bad” made for an interesting end to the Creature Feature collection. It’s the only story in it that fits within any of my preconceived expectations. It’s about a werewolf. The werewolf follows normal horror werewolf rules (as opposed to paranormal werewolf rules), and the story has a lot of gore and tense moments in it.

Best of Luck

Creature Feature Reviews: “Best of Luck” by Jason Mott

“Best of Luck” is pulling as my favorite story in the collection. Although “Ankle Snatcher” is the only one that scared me, this one was the most fun to read. I actively wish there were more pages, that the story didn’t have to be over so soon.

In Bloom

Creature Feature Reviews: “In Bloom” by Paul Tremblay

“In Bloom” just kept missing. Each time the horror felt like it was going to build to something, each time I thought the concept was going to hit harder, it just failed to work.

If there was an award for the most middle-of-the-road story in this collection, “It Waits in the Woods” would currently win.

Ankle Snatcher

Creature Feature Reviews: “Ankle Snatcher” by Grady Hendrix

I’m not that easily scared, but “Ankle Snatcher” genuinely freaked me out. The night I read it, I obeyed all the rules outlined about how not to get brutally killed by this monster that lives underneath the bed. It’s been a few days since then, and I am still overly cautious when I’m falling asleep.

The Pram

Creature Feature Reviews: “The Pram” by Joe Hill

0

By Brandon Scott on Oct 9th, 2023

As odd as it is for a horror fan to say, “The Pram” is the first thing I’ve read by Joe Hill, the son of the most famous horror writer in the world, Stephen King. But, from what I’ve heard through the grapevine of criticism, they share a fair number of stylistic flourishes.

Horrid

It Came From The Archives! “Horrid Review: The Horrors Of Extreme Feelings”

0

By Brandon Scott on Apr 5th, 2023

Horrid is a book about emotions more than anything else. Its plot, its ending, its momentum are all in service of getting across big emotional moments.

It’s finally that time, dear readers! The day of spooky fun and sugary treats. No matter your age, there’s always something to enjoy on this wonderful night.

Friday Fiction: Pumpkin Carver

If there’s a reoccurring theme in these yearly Halloween stories, it’s that characters can take Halloween too far. The darkness claims them, and the horror begins.

Escapism

It Came From The Archives “The Paradoxical Escapism of Horror”

0

By Brandon Scott on Oct 26th, 2022

This is by no means the only reason someone would like horror, but as Halloween fast approaches, it’s the perfect time to cover “The Escapism of Horror.”
