Review :
"Couldn't put it down-and then couldn't sleep!" - Lauren M., Cedar Rapids, Iowa I picked this up thinking it would be fun Halloween reading, but WOW. These stories go deep-like folklore, culture, and legit creepy vibes all rolled into one. The writing feels personal and spooky without being over-the-top. I'm still thinking about the chapter on the Night Whistler... and yes, I now double-check my locks before bed. "Genuinely terrifying AND fascinating." - Tom R., Halifax, Nova Scotia I'm a big fan of podcasts like Lore and The Magnus Archives, and this book hit that exact sweet spot-creepy, intelligent, and beautifully written. Some legends I'd never even heard of before, especially the ones from Africa and Oceania. Definitely not just a ghost story collection-this one sticks with you. "The perfect 'read it with the lights on' book." - Jenny L., Carson City, Nevada My teens and I read parts of this together in the evenings leading up to Halloween. We were hooked. They loved the TikTok-style creepypasta legends, and I loved the cultural insights and how well-researched it all felt. Dark Whispers is now officially our new October tradition. "Finally-a horror book that goes global." - Raj P., Leicester, UK I've read a lot of urban legend books, but most are very U.S.-centric. This one is different. You get chills from a cursed woman in Japan, then immediately get pulled into something terrifying from South Africa or Venezuela. Totally bingeable, and weirdly educational in the best way. A must for horror lovers.
