Marina Garrido, The Sinister Scoop ★ ★ ★ ★ "Dead Letters doesn't work because it limits the writers to a literary device that we readers love; it works because the writers who created it are a brilliant bunch."

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ "This collection isn't limited only to emails and letters, featuring diary entries, police/autopsy reports, interviews, online chatrooms, podcast/video transcriptions, game walkthroughs, and much more. In these stories there's something for everyone, you'll find ghosts, demons, aliens, cursed places, mysterious creatures, cursed objects, witches, and serial killers."
