Heather Cranmer (2721 KP) rated The Dead Girls of Hysteria Hall in Books
Jun 7, 2018
I loved Katie Alender’s Bad Girls Don’t Die series. I was ecstatic to find out she had written another horror ghost story. Miss Alender did not disappoint me with the Dead Girls of Hysteria Hall.
This was a book I didn’t want to put down. I would have read it all in one sitting too had it not been for real life getting in they way.
I loved all the characters and felt they were well written. Florence was my favorite character though for some reason.
The story line was well written. Plus, I love horror stories where an old house is involved.
Yes, some of the plot twists are predictable, and there were times I had some unanswered questions, but I still loved the book.
I would definitely recommend this book. I’m hoping Miss Alender will write another horror ghost story soon. She’s definitely one of my favorite authors.

Such a great ghost story!
I really can't get over that I've never read this book before I'm such a huge horror fan, I absolutely love ghost stories, and I've seen the movies that are based on this book so many times it's not even funny, I really can't get over I've never read the book. I really enjoyed Shirley Jackson's writing it had a very dreamy quality to it she has a absolutely amazing talent at writing atmosphere most of the time you really felt like you were in Hill House along with the characters who were all really well written even though I do wish we would have got to know some of them a little more. All in all I really enjoyed this book and I'll definitely be reading more of Shirley Jackson's work since I can't get over I've never read anything by her before.

Ride With The Cage
Ghost Rider- is one of those movies you love but think its wierd at the same time.
Nicolas Cage- goes over 100% on his acting in this film. He's over nine-thousand.
The plot: Years ago, motorcycle stuntman Johnny Blaze (Nicolas Cage) sold his soul to save the life of a loved one. Now, he transforms into a fiery, avenging agent of justice at night wherever evil roams. As the only one who can walk in both worlds, Johnny is charged by Mephistopheles (Donal Logue) himself to destroy Blackheart (Wes Bentley), a demon that wants to overthrow Mephistopheles and create a worse hell than the one that currently exists.
Their is a 5-10 minute talk between nicolas cage and sam elliot and you cant understand a word there saying.
Ghost rider- is funny, has action, is dumb but overall is a good movie.

Another great opening (2 more)
The main trio of characters are back
Plenty of twists and turns
The return of Ghost Face
We had a long wait for another Scream film but definitely worth it for fans of the series. Better than the third film and still largely sticking with the same formula. It's brought up to date with modern technology and still makes fun of itself and the Horror franchise.

Almost very good
Another young adult book by Matt Haig, The Dead Father's Club is a reimagining of Hamlet. Even with serious issues, Haig likes to keep tongue in cheek and fill his books with fun and here's another one. A boys dad died and joins The Dead Father's Club, should he listen to his dad and kill his uncle or does his dad's ghost even exist?

BookInspector (124 KP) rated The Yellow Wall-Paper in Books
Sep 24, 2020
This little book had 3 stories: The Yellow Wall-Paper, The Rocking Chair, Old Water. They are all very different, but scary nevertheless. I didn’t get time to get used to the characters, because the stories are very short, but I did like their personas. The first two stories had a very strong ghost element to it, the third one had a very strong punch at the end.

Not too bad
Nor the best body story but not too bad. The acting was decent and the cinematography worked well. The storyline was interesting but the explanation for the 'ghost" and the ending were a little weak. The story moved along a little slower than I normally like but it turned out ok. It kept my attention and entertained well enough to say it's worth a watch.
