This was a collection of stories by various authors all taking place at Halloween. The stories vary in nature. They also vary in the audience they are serving and in the quality of the story. Some of them I liked and some of them I didn’t. **I voluntarily read and reviewed this book

I did not finish La Hacienda De Los ...

Like everyone who reads a collection of short stories ...
