REVIEW: Misfits

 Misfits
Author: Hunter Shea


Every town has a creepy legend...a beast at the lake, a creature in the woods, a witch in The One House nobody will walk past....     And every town has that group of fringe kids....the group at the back of every school photo shoot....or just missing from the yearbook entirely. In the 90s grunge era, Milbury, Connecticut is no different. 

Local lore tells the tale of the Melon Heads.....walk down Dracula Drive after dark, and they might get you. And 5 kids in the fringe group....broken homes, stoners....Misfits. When one of them is raped, the close-knit group plots revenge. But revenge sometimes comes at a great price.....

This book is creepy....and really gross in places. But Hunter Shea managed to creep me out once again! He's scared me with giant rats, funky fungus and various other monsters....why not forest dwelling melon heads! 

Readers who enjoy campy creepy horror will love this book....just don't eat while you read. There are some gross parts...ha ha! 

Loved this one! I can't wait to see what Hunter Shea is gonna scare me with next!
