Horror explores monstrosity, not only in the forms of monsters, but in those aspects of human nature that are monstrous. The cruelty of children and teenagers is a repeated theme in this collection. This being a Halloween collection, our inherent fascination with scaring ourselves is also a theme. I...
Bad Apples is a fun collection of scary and disturbing stories, all based around Halloween. The first story, THE RIGGLE TWINS, showcases the talents of two children... every Halloween, they visit the town the year brings them to in order to find at least two adults who selfishly keep their lights ...
I say without a doubt that anyone planning on reading this book during Halloween is picking the right book to read. The Riggle twins: 2 siblings go trick and treat…lock your doors and don’t open! Pumpkinhead Ted: Don’t mess with the boy with the pumpkinhead… Ghost light road: If your friend wants y...
This is probably my second favorite story from Evans Light. I really dig the premise, and would love to see it expanded upon, maybe even as far as novel length. It reminded me of the what-ifs posed in Preston and Child's RELIQUARY, a book I had big fun with. My only complaint is a typical one whe...

This was fun. Goofy, yes. Silly? You betcha. But still loads of fun. Reminded me of something you'd find on ScyFy on Tuesday morning at 3am. You can't take it too seriously, and must accept it for what it is. Granted, I probably shouldn't have laughed as hard as I did during the "bone shower," but I...
I believe a reader's enjoyment of this short story will come down to one question: Do you believe a ghost can grow up? If your answer is no, you may be put off by the happenings of DARK CURTAINS. That's what happened to me. I couldn't buy into the whole ghost becoming an adult after dying at the ...
After finishing this bit of flash fiction I'm left with one thought: I just watched a commercial. The short is well-written, has the tiniest bit of atmosphere, but overall leaves one desiring more. The characters are plain and unremarkable, as is the ending. I've read a few of Evans's stories, bu...
Full disclosure: I kinda-sorta know the Light brothers. We've never met face-to-face, but we've had numerous online interactions. I'd go so far as to say that I consider them to be two good Internet pals of mine. I don't believe the feeling is mutual, really. But that's beside the point. What I'm t...
I feel dirty, as if I'm covered in a thick layer of grime and ash. DON'T NEED NO WATER is a helluva a short story. Evans Light managed to actually disturb me. My jaw aches from clenching, and goose flesh seem to be plastered permanently across my arms. Two thing in particular unsettled me. The menti...
