Anomalies & Curiosities: An Anthology of Gothic Medical Horror, a short story anthology from Quill & Crow Publishing, contains 10 short stories of medical horrors sure to make the hair on the back of your neck stand up. Stories that will creep you out and stick in your brain long after you finish reading the book.
Each of the ten stories in this collection seeks to not only entertain but to remind us of the days when shocking medical experiments were necessary to reach the levels of scientific advancement today. As creeped out as these stories made me, it also made me wonder what experiments today would be viewed as archaic in the future as these are today.
Some stories stuck with me more so than others. My favorites in this collection are: “Ill Wind” by R.A. Busby, “Woman in the White Cottage” by Rebecca Howe Jones, “Shadows” by Marie Casey, and “The Unveiling” by Brad Acevedo. This is a strong collection, there are no weak filler stories.
5/5 Stars
I received an advance copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
