Twenty-five years ago, Maggie Holt and her parents, Ewan and Jess, moved into Baneberry Hall, a rambling Victorian estate in the Vermont woods. Three weeks later they fled in the dead of night, an ordeal Ewan later recounted in a nonfiction book called House of Horrors. His horror memoir of ghostly happenings and encounters with malevolent spirits became a worldwide phenomenon, rivaling The Amityville Horror in popularity — and skepticism.

Welcome to Derry, Maine. It’s a small city, a place as hauntingly familiar as your own hometown. Only in Derry the haunting is real.

But the promise they made 28 years ago calls them reunite in the same place where, as teenagers, they battled an evil creature that preyed on the city’s children.

Finding a husband shouldn't be difficult, not when she has her entire life before her. But it's not life that preoccupies her thoughts. It's death - and that shadowy spectre haunts her every step. So does Mr. Knell. Heart-thumpingly attractive, obviously eligible - he'd be her perfect match, if only he wasn't so macabre. All his talk about death, all that teasing about knowing how to avoid it. Impulsively, she takes Knell up on his offer.

Story
The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

Entragian uses various ploys for the abductions, from an arrest for drug possession to "rescuing" a family from a nonexistent gunman.

Guy Montag is a fireman. In his world, where television rules and literature is on the brink of extinction, firemen start fires rather than put them out. His job is to destroy the most illegal of commodities, the printed book, along with the houses in which they are hidden. Montag never questions the destruction and ruin his actions produce, returning each day to his bland life and wife, Mildred, who spends all day with her television "family."

Story
The modern audience hasn't had a chance to truly appreciate the unknowing dread that readers would have felt when reading Bram Stoker's original 1897 manuscript. Most modern productions employ campiness or sound effects to try to bring back that gothic tension, but we've tried something different. By returning to Stoker's original storytelling structure - a series of letters and journal entries voiced by Jonathan Harker, Dr. Van Helsing, and other characters - with an all-star cast of narrators, we've sought to recapture its originally intended horror and power.

Story
Narrator Dan Stevens ( Downton Abbey) presents an uncanny performance of Mary Shelley's timeless gothic novel, an epic battle between man and monster at its greatest literary pitch. In trying to create life, the young student Victor Frankenstein unleashes forces beyond his control, setting into motion a long and tragic chain of events that brings Victor to the very brink of madness. How he tries to destroy his creation, as it destroys everything Victor loves, is a powerful story of love, friendship, scientific hubris, and horror.

I can't get enough Roma's stories
I'm not a huge lover of short stories, but I love Roma's. Actually it's a bittersweet love. She always leaves me wanting more. Her shorts are awesomeness, but I keep thinking "Roma, Roma, I want, I need more" and what can I say about Tony F. Self. He just adds to the awesomeness!! Perfect combo!!!

5 big spooky ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Roma Gray has done it again!! Celebration of Horror, Book 1 is a great compilation of horror stories that will have you wanting to read/listen with the lights on. Ms. Gray's storytelling skills are remarkable and I cannot get enough of her writing.
In this compilation, you will find one story relating to Christmas, Easter and Valentine's Day and two relating to Halloween. I enjoyed them all equally well and loved that you learned more about the story (why written, etc) at the end of.each segment. These are all great, creepy stories that will leave you looking over your shoulder at every little bump in the night.
Also, I loved the narrator, Terry Self. His voice and inflection while telling the story added an extra level of excitment. Mr. Self definitely would be welcomed around any campfire.
I would highly recommend Roma Gray to all. If you haven't tried any of her works, you really are missing out. Thank you again Ms. Gray for a truly frightful tale!

Fantastic!
This was a great collection of several horror stories that had me on the edge of my seat! I made the mistake of listening to this one before bed and it was a lot scarier than I was expecting but super good. Well written stories and fantastic narration - I highly recommend this audio!

Five Exciting Holiday Stories!
These are five quick horror stories dealing with holidays that are under an hour each. I love Roma’s writings. Hearing it on audio is great on a nice fall or winter drive in the dark. The narrator has great inflection and feeling in his voice. I better keep my door locked!

Imaginative
Celebration of Horror is a very imaginative collection of short stories. The stories are clever,fast paced, and often have surprise endings. I extended a hike so I could listen to all the stories in one afternoon.

Really is her BEST!!!!
Roma Gray has swiftly and suredly become a favorite author. She has a rare ability to write powerful short stories, stories with heart, with soul, and a sharp knife to cut them out of you by the end of her tales. I have said this before; good short stories are hard to write. It takes a lot to make you care about something in a short piece of time, and she seems to do so effortlessly. I think I have read just about everything she has done, and I have never seen something that was "just ok" or decent. Everything she has done has been excellent, well crafted, and full of heart.
So, it should be no surprise when I rave about her Celebration of Horror. The only negative thing I have to say is that there are only five stories in this collection. I really want MORE. Each short centers on a particular holiday, and I think the best was her unique interpretation of vampires on Easter. Just plain killer. I will say that she doesn't drown you in blood and gore. Nope. Most of the horror is what goes on in our own hearts and heads, and that is the only medium she needs to put a chill down your spine. Sincerely, get this book and enjoys a budding master of the written word while you can, you will be glad that you hopped on the train early.
Ooops, almost forgot to commend Mr. Self for his fine narration skills. As far as I know, the man has done all of her works, and deservedly so. He really conveys the deeper subtext of her stories, and knows how to build up the suspense, before driving the hammer home. He is easy to understand, and follow (although he will take you down some dark paths). Even though I did receive a promo code for this review it in no way influenced my considerations of the material, and in fact, inspired me to be more honest. In fact, getting a code generally makes me harsher as a reviewer as I am more often concerned what someone like Me will decide based on my review.

You will never look at Easter the same way again
This is an anthology from one of my favourite horror short story writers. Roma Gray’s imagination just scares me. This audio begins with the warning that celebrations are a day where we put an ‘x’ on the calendar and plan to enjoy the day with family and friends. But what if something bad happens that day?
My best friend died on Christmas Day, BTW.
As Roma Gray points out – life is random.
There are five holidays addressed: Mother’s Day, Christmas, Easter, Halloween, and Valentine’s Day. I loved Ms. Gray commenting that Valentine’s Day is “the most brutal holiday and that more people have a bad day rather than a good day.” In fact, she titles the story, “All Roads Lead to Hell”.
What could possibly go wrong?
If you have read Ms. Gray’s “Love Letters”, you’ll know that love letters are not always welcome.
Ruth is a nurse working in a nursing home. Most of the residents are quietly going off into that good night, accepting of their fate. Not Emily. The nonagenarian woman is fighting tooth and nail to stay alive. Even though the cancer has almost won the battle, Emily is not willing to give up. It isn’t until Ruth comes across Emily’s trove of love letters that she understands why the older woman is so terrified of death.
Since this is Roma Gray, there are elements of the supernatural, and of course, the very disquieting. If I were facing Emily’s potential fate, I would fight tooth and nail as well. And the ending was disturbing.
All the endings in this anthology are disquieting. If you never loved Christmas, ‘A T-Rex for Christmas’ is not going to change your mind. Halloween freak you out? An old house in Maine might not be the best place to stay during All Hallows Eve. Bad things are bound to happen.
These stories create a nice little collection and Ms. Gray promises there will be more. I can only imagine what she can do with New Year’s Eve and the Summer Solstice.
Terry F. Self does another great job bringing first the right tension, using volume, tone, and pauses in perfect combination to make a terrifying story. Horror isn’t my fave, but I will always listen to Roma Gray.
