Once Upon A Ghost: 20 Eerie Faerie Tales (Once Upon Series Book 5)

I was given an Advance Reader Copy as a gift from one of the authors without obligation. I am providing an honest review.This collection of 20 different ghost stories was brilliant! Each one was by a different author, some I have previously read, others were new to me and the stories were all ghostly twists of classic fairy tales. I loved how these traditional tales all had their own twists and the ghostly elements of each were fun to read.Yasmine Galenorn's take on Rapunzel in Rapunzel Dreaming was so different from the Brothers Grimm version and I loved Ms Galenorn's twist to the girl locked in the tower by a wicked witch. The way the ghostly obsession carries on throughout history was an unexpected way to tell this story. Loved this version!A great collection of ghost and fairy tale stories that I spent many hours thoroughly enjoying!

Once Upon A Ghost contains short stories from many popular authors. Some I'm familiar with, others not so much. Sarra Cannon's story - Ella and the Haunted House - is brilliant. The way she draws you in from the beginning and leaves you wanting more at the end is amazing. This story is no different from others that she has written in that it is well written with likeable (and unlikable) characters, giving chills down the spine (as I would expect nothing less from a book of ghost stories).I can't wait to read the rest of the stories in this book.

I was given an Advance Reader Copy as a gift from author without obligation. I am providing an honest review.This is a fantastic set of spooky and creepy retellings and new fairy stories. Moving from demons to ghosts and back again they will keep you up all night reading. Rapunzel Dreaming is a unique look k at why Rapunzel was locked in the tower, its a sweet yet dark twist of a fairy tale that really show cases how well Yasmine Galenorn writes dark fantasy. If your anything like me you'll come away with several new authors on your to be read list. Grab a hot drink, a thick blanket and get ready for some heart wrenching spooky stories.
