This book is very very suspenseful. It leaves you hanging after each page.There are seven different stories that will surely creep you out. I have a tip for people who read this book, "Dont read it at night!" I reccomend this to people who like scary stories and scary movies.

Most of these stories didn't really frighten me, but they were sad or funny (depending on which one you're talking about) and all were good reads. Many of the scariest parts came from "Yeah, that sort of thing CAN happen!" moments.

This was a great book, I would encourage anyone to read this book, particularly in October. There is a variety of stories and they are all told well. I love the way the author tells these stories.

Being Dead has seven stories about dead people who have not quite moved on. Some of the stories are better than others. I think that Being Dead was the weakest story; Drop by Drop and October Chill were much better.
The stories were creepy. Very much like Stephen King for a younger set of readers

Rarely do I enjoy every story in an anthology, but every story in Being Dead entertained me in one way or another. Some stories were terrifying, some touching, and some hilarious. My favorite is probably the short and simple story "The Gost."
