Book Review: Terror in the Shadows Vol. 9: Horror Short Stories Collection with Scary Ghosts, Paranormal & Supernatural Monsters by by Scare Street (Publisher), Ron Ripley (Author), David Longhorn (Author), Sara Clancy (Author), Bronson Carey (Author), Kathryn St. John-Shin (Editor), Michelle Reeves (Editor)

 I received a review copy through librarything's Early Reviewer's program.

This is the first horror short story collection I have read by Scare Street. This collection has seventeen stories by four authors. Many are set in the northeastern portion of the United States. Many of the characters meet grisly ends from the hands of the undead. A few stories have very current settings with references to the current pandemic, and the very last story Fatberg, while it didn't quite match up with the tone of the other stories in the book was probably my favorite as it had a little more humorous tone than the other stories. Like many short story collections that I have read the stories varied in strength. Some of these were very good, and others weren't as engaging in my opinion.

All in all though, this was an engaging collection of spooky stories, perfect for fall spooky reading.
