5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome collection of scary stories!, November 7, 2002

By	"marius1784" (Tx. United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Even More Tales for the Midnight Hour (Turtleback)

I first read this book when I bought it in the 5th grade from those catalogs we use to get in school for the scholastic book fairs (remember those). It totally blew me away!

Comparable to such masters of young horror as Alvin Schwarz or RL Stine. Easy reading and very entertaining for kids! If you have a kid between the ages of 9 and 14 who loves scary stories this is a perfect book for them, as well as the rest of J.B. Stampers Tales for the Midnight Hour Collections and the Night Frights Collections.

Some tales of this book include The Gecko: story of a man who releases a pet gecko in his apartment but soon realizes to his horror that it is no ordinary gecko! Voices: story of a girl who's best friend has been hearing voices that predict things to come! Other great stories too!

This book is out of print though so it may be a bit harder to get but it is possible to pick up a copy online for around or under 5 bucks. Definately check out the other collections I mentioned, you won't be disappointed!

4.0 out of 5 stars Even More Chillers for Young Readers, October 3, 2005

By	Joshua Koppel (Chicago, IL United States) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

This collection of scary stories appeals mostly to the very young reader. Each story is quite short and simple. The typical story has a short build-up with a simple shock ending like "there was a skeleton at the door." Stories lack the resolutions older or more accomplished readers will want but for the style they are really rather entertaining.

The stories range widely in their focus. The reader meets monsters, vampires, witches, bad fortunes and all manner of scary thing.

This is the fourth in a series. It has also been collected with the third volume (STILL MORE TALES FOR THE MIDNIGHT HOUR) in another book called TALES FOR THE MIDNIGHT HOUR, VOLUME TWO (ISBN 0-7607-6776-9).
