   3 Spooky Scary Stories! "Proof" by Ron Ripley: Kudos to protagonist Joel for his creative inventions! Especial kudos to the author for the immensely unexpected plot twists and that twisty but morally gratifying ending! "Ice Fishing " by Ron Ripley: Do NOT read this at night alone! I still cannot stop thinking of this story and of "Proof" [above]! I admired so much the deep characterizations; that's one of the author's gifts. Two brothers, at a moment in time: then bang!

[figuratively] and everything changes and oh my word how that change is affected! Sheer implacable horror!! "The Last Light" by Rowan Rook: A small-scale Apocalypse [as far as reader and characters know, limited to one community] but unavoidable and implacable and scared me senseless. Then, that Ending!!

   Here is yet another great five-star offering from Scare Street. These short stories are easily read in an hour or so and pack plenty of scary punch in a small package. In this edition, we have a guy who invents a device that can detect spirits - to his own ultimate dismay. Then we get a particularly grisly tale of two brothers who go ice fishing on a lake that harbors a very nasty legend that isn't a legend after all. Finally, we get a dark tale of two sisters at the end of the world doing what Here is yet another great five-star offering from Scare Street.

Finally, we get a dark tale of two sisters at the end of the world doing what they must do to keep the darkness at bay, and the darkness is something you absolutely do not want. These stories just keep getting better and better. I cannot wait for Volume 21 and beyond.

   Proof tells us that inventions can be great or they can give you more than you actually bargained for-----as in ghosts spirits. Ice fishing tells us that you can't always believe everything you hear, as one brother found out when the legend became deadly. The Last Light shows us that you can burn everything you own and still not see the light of the spirits, ghosts, and demons and what they all will decide in the end.

   These stories were - AMAZING. Admittedly, I liked the first two better than the last one. There was something about the last story that just didn't grab me. The first two stories in this book, however, are going to have you looking behind you at least once. Fabulous, scary, and perfect for a late night spook! These stories were - AMAZING.
