Emporium of Superstition ♦ Anthology | Review

Are you a fan of mythological stories with a whiff of horror, fantasy and paranormal beings? Then you should read this anthology.
Twelve talented young female writers will abduct you into amazingly written short stories, also known as old wives' tales.



Emporium of Superstition ♦ Athology

The anthology Emporium of Superstition is just wonderful! Each one of these short stories were remarkably written, even though not all could catch me completely! I was reading one story at a time. Once I started a story it was hard to put my Kindle down. But I just couldn't indulge in the next one. Some just needed to settle with my emotions.

All the authors who participated in this anthology are new to me, but I will definitely keep my eyes open for more of all twelve of them.

Next to ghost stories, I found mythological stories about and with demons, witches, and other paranormal beings and I felt delighted reading all these tales. As I informed myself about them, I found out those were retellings. As a German I am not very familiar with typical US American Old Wives' Tales. Therefore, with some I had to do some research for a better insight to the new tales.

Bottom Line

⭐⭐⭐⭐/5

In case you are looking for some spooky short stories for this Halloween season, you should get this anthology.
Emporium of Superstition will not disappoint.


I have to thank BookSirens for the ARC in exchange for my personal opinion.
