Santa’s making a list

A Dead List

Dr. Harris’ infamous psychiatric patient, Fiona, harbors some disturbing ideas about Christmas and Santa’s lists: The Naughty List, the Nice List, and the Dead List. But when his twisted client requests he look at a few stories, Dr. Harris sees no harm in humoring her. One after another, he reads the stories and becomes increasingly disturbed by what he finds:

Too Much to Ask: Holly’s job is killer. Even getting the day off for Christmas may end up being too much to ask.

Playing Santa: Naomi envisions a perfect Christmas for her children, but sometimes the harder we try, the worse things get.

Red Shoes: It’s a dirty, dirty world and Starla simply wants to clean it up.

Previous Tenant: Some places are cursed. Maybe some people are too.

But the most gruesome story may be the one that Fiona and Dr. Harris are in the middle of acting out.

Listen to this collection of dark, disturbing, and delightful tales…if you dare!

Good collection of holiday short horror

Perfect to listen to before the holidays. Well written well narrated shorts. I could very easily see this becoming a yearly tradition with more and more stories added to the list. Highly recommend. I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator or publisher

Holidy Horror

Interconnected stories that are hit and miss. I liked the twist at the end, didn't see it coming. Narrator did a weird, almost robotic reading which I didn't care for.

VHS like anthology

Ireceived this book complimentary in exchange for an honest review. Generally, anthologies and short stories aren't my preference, and had I been more attentive to the book's description, I might not have chosen it. However, to my pleasant surprise, the book captivated me by the end. It resonated with a strong VHS anthology feel, particularly with a Christmas theme. The first half of the book was decent, neither outstanding nor disappointing. The second half, however, was quite impressive. The final story, in particular, stood out and would translate exceptionally well into a video format. The narrator's delivery was well-suited to the characters, enhancing the overall experience.
