HOROWITZ HORROR
Name of Book: Horowitz Horror
Author: Anthony Horowitz
Book reviewed by: Marcus Fernandez
The book that I have chosen for this review is the book “Horowitz Horror” written
by Anthony Horowitz the bestselling author who is also well known for his “Alex
Rider” series.
I chose it because of my liking for horror and supernatural stories. I definitely think
that this is an exceptional example of genuine horror.
This book is written as a series of different spine-chilling tales. The theme of each
story is about a normal everyday object that we may use or see such as bathtubs,
cameras, and buses. The magic is that each of these objects turn out to be cursed or
What I liked about this book is that it is pure horror. Many times when I pick up
a horror book I find that it is just downright gross. But in this book instead of
making you sick it sends chills up your spine. This book also has a twist after every
tale that is so terrifying. Often one of the main characters meets with a terrible fate.
Horowitz writes each story with such skill that you feel the horror freeze your
heart. You feel the agony of fear that the characters face. As you read you plunge into
the stories with the ghosts and demons surrounding you.
This book is a must read. There is one warning though. If you wish to read this
book never read it at night. This book is only for those who can sleep peacefully
without the fear of things that bump and creak in the night.
SO READ IF YOU DARE.
