I haven’t read anything like this before. If you are looking for a horror thriller, look no further. I have read about some of the rare phobias in this book. Phobias like banana phobia and marshmallow phobia. I liked reading the interview and the stories too. The main character in the horror thrilling tales is a giant banana causing trouble and creating chaos for everyone. Expect blood, bizarre scenes and all the unexpected. The book took me by surprise and the ending shook me. This book has mature themes.
Thanks to the Publisher.
"Scary Stories for Bananaphobes" by Bruce McBruce is a quirky collection of horror stories with a humorous twist, all centered around bananas. The tales range from giant bananas causing chaos in cities to bizarre scenarios like pirate fruits and fire-breathing banana dragons. It's a book for readers who enjoy a mix of dark humor and creative absurdity.
Since it was published recently (December 31, 2024), there aren't many reviews yet, but the concept promises a unique and entertaining experience for fans of unconventional horror. If you like your scares with a side of silliness, this might be worth checking out!
Ughhhh I'm not sure what it was that I just read......
This book is a rollercoaster of bizarre, darkly comedic and hilariously chilling tales. The book centers around bananas as the central figure. I will say I did go down rabbit hole to find out if this was a real phobia and I suppose it is? It's so bizarre (to me at least) that I'm not 100% sure at this point.
There is a mixture of horror and absurd humor which makes this very easy to read with lots of WTF moments.
"The strings that come off the flesh. That's another thing I hate. You know when you're eating g it and it has those stringy bits? They're like veins. Absolutely disgusting."
