Things we like: Through the Woods

Through the Woods is the creepiest thing you will ever read. Creepier than those Scary Stories to tell in the Dark books you read when you were eight. Creepier than the spider-things from Harry Potter. Creepier than the way your sister sleepwalks (don't get me started...) Author Emily Carrol's genius  has crafted an anthology of spooky short graphic novel form stories that honestly make you frightened for whatever is beyond the night light in your room.



Featuring several creepy little ghost/demon/what-even-is-that stories, this is the graphic novel that you wouldn't have wanted to read that one night. You know the night- the one you were actually scared during. The art is a perfect compliment to the stories- well-done, unnerving, and bizarre.




 
Do we suggest this book to you? Yes. Do we suggest that you weep over the art like I did? Yes. Do we suggest showing this to your six year old sister. No. Please do not.
Bean's not on to me yet, but I'm frightened, readers.
