Don't Turn Out the Lights

 
This anthology is a tribute in the frame of Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark. The 35 tales are mostly short. Well, they're all short, but some run a little more like a standard kids' short story while others are only a couple pages. 

The illustrator, while nothing near as creepy as the original, does a good job. 

The stories themselves are hit or miss, like any anthology. Very rarely do I come across an anthology that just knocks it out of the park with every story. 

My favorites: The Funeral Portrait, The Carved Bear, The Neighbor, and The Tall Ones.

I recommend picking it up if you like Scary Stories. It's only $6.99 on Amazon.
