It’s a few short horror stories that all surround the same house in Cardiff, Maine. The third story made me cry so hard, I couldn’t get it out of my head 😅😿

Love her novels (most recent one I read was Babysitter but I honestly never finished because it’s twisted it’s about the Oakland County Child Killer and you can tell she did her research… about to read 48 Clues into the Disappearance of My Sister) and her short stories but of all of her anthologies Haunted Tales of the Grotesque is my favorite and it lives up to its title…

The Doll-Maker and Other Tales of Horror, Black Dahlia and White Rose: Stories, The Corn Maiden and Other Nightmares. But my favorite which I’ve rec-ed before is Haunted: Tales of the Grotesque the titular story Haunted is so sick and twisted and I cry tears of fear every time I go back to read it (which I have multiple times). She has the most viscerally disturbing and discomfiting style and a unique ability to crawl under your skin, more so than any other horror author I’ve read and horror is not even typically her primary genre!!

Love her novels though they are lengthy but Joyce Carol Oates has a gift for writing disturbing short stories. Pictured are a few of her horror themed compilations and I would also recommend the classic story Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been, which was loosely adapted into the 1985 film Smooth Talk starring Laura Dern!

Why does shit have to be timed? Why do you HAVE to have things done or do specific things by a certain age or a certain time? It pisses me off, not everyone works like thattt

I love the mixtures I can make!!!!
I can add anything I want into it, ant veggies, sometimes fruits. Love adding goat cheese or feta cheese. I also love to experiment with the dressings; sometimes balsamic oriented, sometimes lemon focused. It’s so nutritional and makes me feel sooo good!!! Warm or cold, there’s so much variety!!!
