Five short stories to chill your bones and feel blessed that you are not living the story unfolding before your eyes. Killers and Demons is an apt name for this book, every story centers around one or the other, and in many cases, they are one in the same.
Although not appropriate for anyone younger that high school age, I think this would still qualify as a great YA horror short story book. The tales are brief enough to capture their interest; short enough for them to learn to tell during sleepovers and over campfires.
Victorian shadows has the best feel to me, and I feel that one could easily be stretched into a novella at the very least, learning how one escapes Hell and lives on the run from a demon. The rest of the stories are sure to make your YA reader think twice before turning off the light or walking down a dark alley. For .99 cents on SmashWords, it is a great start to your high schooler's summer reading list! (flashlight and scary sound effects not included!!)
