Short Tales Of Horror III
by Regina Puckett
Genre: Horror / Short Stories
My Review
I’d read another collection Of Regina’s and really enjoyed them so I was quick to grab this one when I came across it.
There are fifteen stories here and I liked every single one. Some were scary. Some were very twisted. And some even made me laugh at their wickedness.
In these pages you’ll come across a possessive ghost with deadly intent, creepy dolls that have a few tricks up their sleeves, homeless people that should be wary of a helping hand, a husband who won’t be raising a hand to his wife again, a hitchhiker with a twist, an inheritance with strings attached, a re-encounter with the possessive spirit, a resentful new father, thirteen black cats who might not add up to a lucky number, how being late for school can have dire consequences, what happens when a miracle diet pill comes with side affects, why imaginary friends can feel all too real, what occurs when an alien spacecraft brings nothing good and what a vampire does when you don’t clean up after yourself.
I’d be hard pressed to choose a favorite. The author penned some creative and curious tales and they were well executed. All of these were either 4 or 5 star reads. I devoured them in one sitting and could have read more. It’s like tiny horror M&Ms. I couldn’t read just one, or two….
If you enjoy horror collections, you’ll certainly enjoy these. I sure did.

Synopsis
My collection of short stories of ghosts, evil spirtis, werewolves, a few mentally ill people and I’ve even thrown in a few zombies and vampires into the mixture.
I’ve taken your every fear and written a story about it, so they can be examined in the bright light of day. Of course if your prefer, you’re welcome to read them at night too. I’ll leave it up to you to decide whether you want your horror now or later.

Creepy dolls scare the hell out of me!
Me too. Something must be wrong with me as I’m always up for a creepy story or movie about them. LOL
So not for me but I’m glad it was so good for you. Anne – Books of My Heart

Don’t forget to run! LOL
I hate creepy dolls Laura! I don’t know why as dolls seem innocuous but maybe it is because you take somthing that is reassuring, a child’s toy and make it evil? That’s evil!!! LOL Love your review.
It’s their eyes that get me! LOL
Ooooh, I am intrigued. And I love the cover! Very spooky!
There;s a lot to scare you with!
You don’t often find a collection of short stories where all of them are winners. Glad you enjoyed this one.
I know. All of these were good.
Not a fan of the covers for some reason, but I do like a good collection of scary stories… IN THE DAYTIME. 😅
And I’m the opposite! I like to read them at night, preferably while it is storming outside. LOL
I think that the first cover is more appealing. A book of scary short stories is something that I might enjoy. Gives me just a little taste of fear. lol I am so happy that you enjoyed them all. 🙂
I like nibbles of horror. And I also like that I can pause between stories and not lose track while reading.
