Through the Woods

Description:

'

It came from the woods. Most strange things do.'

Five mysterious, spine-tingling stories follow journeys into (and out of?) the eerie abyss.

These chilling tales spring from the macabre imagination of acclaimed and award-winning comic creator Emily Carroll.

Come take a walk in the woods and see what awaits you there...

 

My Review:

 

"It is (Carroll's) eerie illustrations....that masterfully build terrifying tension and a keep-the-lights-on atmosphere." 

-Booklist, starred review.

Little collection of imaginary short stories. Creepy, grotesque and odd. The artwork was very abstract yet interesting, but the writing was without any solutions, open ended, strange and not poetic.... Not really sure what to make of it.
