The ultimate collection of horror stories from the perspective of what it means to be “other.” I loved this inclusive set of spooky tales! It’s so hard to pick a favorite story because this collection includes a little bit of everything that is sure to please a multitude of readers. I also appreciate how inclusive these stories are. These stories are written by an all star group of horror authors including Hailey Piper, Alma Katsu, Stephen Graham Jones, Tananarive Due and more. Don’t miss out on this anthology!

Absolutely did not love this. Aside from a (typically) gonzo, unhinged SGJ story and a fascinating S. A. Cosby entry (and, in some ways, an interesting enough but still kinda meh Jennifer McMahon story), these stories REALLY did not work for me. I had high hopes, but this was a strong nope.

I was incredibly glad when I was given access to an ARC of Other Terrors. The cover initially drew me in and then I knew I had to read it after I read the synopsis. This book of short stories is entirely unique, off-putting in the best way, and a great way to spook yourself out right before you go to bed. If you’re looking for a horror anthology with diverse authors, stories, and characters, look no further than this book. Each story felt so distinctive as did each author’s voice. I will be avoiding pools, cabins, and just about anywhere else I could face a potential terror. I definitely recommend this book to any horror fan.

A very uneven anthology of short stories that are supposed to be about the theme other. Some scary, some just okay, and a few I couldn’t get into at all. Definitely a mixed bag, and the only saving Grace a story by Jennifer McMahon.
