I had a lot of fun reading these stories. R.L. Stine's Fear Street and Goosebumps books played a huge part in me getting into horror. So it was nice getting to read similar stories as an adult. Many of these stories also feature queer characters, which made this anthology even more of a joy to read. I really appreciate that DarkLit Press published this book.
