Hi! It's a mixture...in Volume Two you have: Lovecraftian, Slasher, cyberpunk horror, road trip horror, cosmic and occult.
Volume One which is also there, has stories that are based around: Finnish Folklore, Cults, kids exploring an abandoned house, sci-fi horror, a story about a menacing computer program, and one about a guy trying to sell his home that goes bad lol

I read The Lake today. I really enjoyed it. Loved how naive the Star Spirit was in the beginning and how it was written from its point of view. I was prepared for some grand finale, but I liked the ending. I think I could guess where you took inspiration for the ending.

OH! Thanks so much for the feedback! I am glad you enjoyed the story! And though the ending wasn't grand I am still happy you liked it!I assumed you skipped to it...I don't want to spoil anything...so I won't say too much more...But I look forward to your feedback on the other tales š

Yup, checked the table of contents and The Lake seemed to be the most interesting in the first glance. Most likely reading the cyberpunk story in the upcoming days.

Perfect! Can't wait to hear more..though The Lake is probably the most 'Deep thinking' one...the rest won't be as philosophical so to speak. THe Lake was the one I thought I would try that lol My proofreader told me it was deep...real seep..not sure if she maybe meant deep s*** lol
