After Midnight: Thirteen Tales for the Dark Hours Reviews

4.0
“The stories varied from the five star stories ( ‘The Blue Lenses’ which kicked off the anthology, the interesting Apple Tree, The Alibi, The Doll and the classic The Birds) to the two star ones I didn’t care for (Monte Verita and The Breakthrough)”
“most of these were pretty spooky and stressful”
“Monte Verita, The Birds, The Apple Tree & Ganymede were fantastic!!”
