یکی از فراموش نشدنی ترین پایان‌ها رو داشت از اول که شروع به خوندن میکنی میدونی قراره یه اتفاق وحشتناک بیوفته ولی اصلا احتمالش هم نمیدادم اینجوری بشه

داستان اولی نسبتا جالب بود. دومی ایده‌ی تکراری‌ای داشت. سومی هم شاید بچه‌ها رو واقعا بترسونه.

3 short horror stories, all with great twists. A must read for fans of the genre.

I found myself enjoying the monkey’s ear. The four wishes are indeed dangerous but not in a conventional way. An unexpected tale in the manner of Roald Dahl’s short stories which I enjoy the most. And the final story, the shortest horror story makes me look out my window for a bit at the end haha.

This was the second story of the short story bingo board. In my last review I stated that i wanted to read the book because Anthony Horowitz is a brilliant author. I really liked the originality and creativity used to make this story because I have never read anything like it so there was lots of surprises. I don't like how the author makes the protagonist unsure of himself constantly,"Maybe thats why I got up," And a few lines later,"I don't know why I tiptoed but I did," Because it sends a wrong ima This was the second story of the short story bingo board.

Overall a good book for teens and tweens.

Wasnt too scary. The horror contained was more just a slight hatred between two people, then one person got caught up in the middle, making it complicated.

I LOVED this book. It was an amazing book written by Anthony Horowitz. I would be pleased if Anthony Horowitz made another book similar to this one. My favourite character was Uncle Nigel.
