This is a collection of spooky short stories by eight authors. The first story is "Empty Vessel" by M. Edward McNally. It is a short story about a ship stumbling upon a ghost ship and what happens afterwards. It was a well written plot, but not really my cup of tea. That doesn't make it a bad story.

The second story is "The Smell of Death" by Tara West. This story revolves around a little girl with a special gift. Because of this gift, her and her mother have trouble finding a permanent home. The story starts with the mother meeting a potential employee and continues with events happening in the house at that time. My only complaint with this book is the story could really evolve into a novella or even a novel. While the short story has its beginning, climax, and end, I would have really loved to see this in a much longer version. All in all, it's still a well written story and enjoyable read.

Next is "Safe" by Emma Jameson. This is another one that really wasn't my cup of tea, but others would probably find it enjoyable. It centers around a young boy who makes his living robbing graves. Like the previous two stories, it is well written and has a beginning, climax, and ending.

What follows is "Cupcake Goddess: Soulfully Sweet" by Shea MacLeod. It is a short story about the Goddess Brandwen and her constant stalking by a ghost. Even though it is a short story, I enjoyed it.

"May I go Play?" by Heather Marie Adkins is next. As with the previous short stories, it is well written with a well thought out plot. This is another one I can see as a novella or full novel. Another enjoyable read.

"Blehdward, the Vampire Who Couldn't Sparkle" by P.J. Jones, is a tongue-in-cheek stab at the sparkly vampires of "Twilight" fame. The main character doesn't sparkle and is an outcast from the ones who do. At the end of the story, we learn what is behind the sparkle. A cute read.

"Franscesca" by Alan Nayes is a short story set in Brazil in 1928. It revolves around a female witch doctor. She fall in love with a sculptor who cheats on her. What follows is Franscesca's revenge along with tying her soul to a block of blue granite stone. This short story gives a little background into the novel "Girl Blue" by the same author. This short story has me interested in reading the novel.

The last story in this collection is "Souleaters" by RG Porter. While out shopping, Kaitlyn is sucked into another dimension through a fountain. She connects with other humans in this dimension and they look to find a way out. The ending had a surprise twist which I loved.

All in all, this was a nice little collection of short stories that has introduced me to new authors I will consider following. What I loved the most about this collection were the little blurbs about the authors at the end of each short story. They were wacky and funny. If nothing else, this book is worth the read, just for those!

The Eclective The Haunted Collection eBook Alan Nayes Emma Jameson PJ Jones RG Porter M Edward McNally Shéa MacLeod Tara West Heather Marie Adkins Reviews

This is my fourth collection from The Eclective also. I enjoyed it a lot.

"Empty Vessel" by M. Edward McNally is about a ghost ship. It has a lot of the superstitions from the old sailing vessels with which you are familiar if you have read any of the historical novels that had ocean travel or commerce in them. It is one of those stories that love to scare you by sticking in your mind and popping back into your consciousness when you go below deck in any sailing vessel - much as the old gothics do for basement and old piled up attics.

"The Smell of Death" by Tara West tells us of the paranormal abilities of a young girl. She can see ghosts and feel the energies that children are aware of but that we talk ourselves out of believing in by the time we are adults. However, it is a story that ends well - which is important to me because so many stories leave you on a cliff so that you will buy the next story.

"Safe" by Emma Jameson is set in 19th century London and is told by a street urchin who has moved up in the ranks to grave robber. It does get graphic but it is an excellent story.

"Cupcake Goddess Sinfully Sweet" by Shea McLeod has Halloween, trick-or-treaters, ghosts, the passing of a century, and decisions to be made. It kept my attention and I think it will keep yours also.

"May I Go Play?" by Heather Marie Adkins - If you have little ones and believe that disembodied spirits can cause real trouble in our world - especially in old houses where there has been tragedy before -then this story will scare the crap out of you. Well done, Heather!

"Blehdward, the Vampire Who Couldn't Sparkle" by P.J. Jones - I'm not really 'into' vampire stories (I've read my share) but I can say that it is good a story as most I have read.

"Franscesca" by Alan Nayes is set in 20th century Brazil. It is about a 'witch doctor' and the young lover who did her wrong. He was a sculptor and a chunk of blue marble figures prominently in the story.

"Soul Eaters" by R.G. Porter is an excellent story and I was quickly engrossed in it. I do wish I had known up-front that it was just the lead-in to a book. P.G. has excellent powers of description and puts them to use here.

Overall, I can definitely recommend this book.
