 I Found Puppets Living In My Apartment Walls

by Ben Farthing

Genre: Horror

MY REVIEW

Dolls, puppets, stuffed animals. Those creepy eyes give me the shivers. And that’s what makes me always want to read a scary book about them. And the title and cover for this one. How could I resist.

Johnny wakes up to a nightmare. A huge puppet looms over his bed. Then it disappears into the apartment wall. This isn’t a small puppet. It’s tall, covered in blue fluffy hair and scary. It’s Swoomie. A puppet from a favorite children’s show from Johnny’s past. His grandfather was it’s puppeteer. And now his grandpa is missing.

When Johnny tells his sister what happened they look around and find a hidden opening into the walls. It leads all through the apartment building. His sister insists they explore it. Egads! Why? Hasn’t she watched any horror films. That’s the last thing you  should do. And probably the last thing you will ever do.

I was seriously creeped out. While they ventured deeper into the labyrinth of the walls, I kept expecting the worst. Scary good stuff, folks.

Synopsis

Can you tell me how to get… out alive?

★★★★★ – ” I can’t remember the last time a book scared me and made me this nervous .” Andrew Van Wey, author of Head Like a Hole

Johnny awakes. A puppet looms over his bed.

He recognizes the furry Grandpa was its puppeteer on the children’s television show R-City Street . But Grandpa went missing a year ago. He disappeared from this very apartment building, which was converted from the old R-City Street studio.

Desperate to see Grandpa again, Johnny follows the puppet inside the building’s walls, ever deeper into a puppet-infested labyrinth…

I Found Puppets Living In My Apartment Walls is a horror tale from the “darkly inventive” purveyor of uncanny places and wondrous evils, Ben Farthing.

My Review

I started reading this at night. It felt fitting as the story began with a camping trip and scary stories being told around the campfire. I could see the ghoulish faces cause by the light from the wavering flames. Hear the boys breathes quickening as the story gained momentum. Feel their hearts starting to race. Or was it mine?

The moment I read the blurb I was hooked. What could be scarier than being in the wilderness, knowing that disappearances and strange mutilations have occurred there, but still thinking it won’t happen to me. So, when someone disappears, knowing you have no business being out their in the first place flies out the window. It’s now a fight for survival against something terrible and unknown.

The author set this up well. After you learn the ins and out of the characters places in the group, the true nature of the story begins. There’s a good mystery in these pages. The feeling of isolation and desperation are on target. There’s something truly evil that I didn’t expect. And the ending. Well…..you’ll just have to read it.

A good one for a dark and stormy night.

Synopsis

It begins with a ghost story around a campfire. Teenagers out on a walking trip, trying to act brave in front of each other.

But as the walk gets underway and the boys begin to fall out, odd things start to happen.

Noises in the night. A severed rabbit’s foot outside someone’s tent.

Soon, the boys begin to disappear.

As panic sets in and a storm approaches, the remaining boys must band together to face a darkness not even the local ghost stories could help them predict.
