SuitabookDare to be scared 4 Thirteen more Tales of Terror
Robert D. San Souci
- Reading
- Try one story at a time, then check in about its mood before continuing. This makes it easier to pause or switch stories if the suspense feels like too much.
- Themes
- Fear and supernatural threats: Children in the stories are described as trying to escape ghosts and ghouls. Supernatural danger is part of the collection's horror premise; that alone does not establish a wider message about fear.
- Magic and consequences: In “Snow Day”, Connor discovers that making big magic comes at a high cost. The premise links magic with a cost, but does not establish what the cost is or how the story judges the choice.
- Worth knowing
- Horror and suspense are central; ghosts, ghouls and children trying to escape them are mentioned. How intense or graphic the frightening moments become is unclear.
