Ghosts of The Silent Hills: Stories based on true hauntings : Anita Krishan: desertcart.in: Books

Review: Good Book. But requires good command over English. - The stories are good. But you as a reader need to have a strong grip over English, otherwise you will not enjoy the book fully. The author needs to work on simplifying the language for a smooth reading experience. Also, she needs to work on her endings. I wonder why the editor didn't point this out. The stories are way too good. Sadly, the difficult language dampens the entire experience.
Review: A book that will keep you hooked till the very end. - ‘Ghosts of the Silent Hills’ is a book that popped up on my recommendation feed by desertcart while I was browsing for some horror books. I found the cover page interesting and also found out that it was a National Bestseller. Enough reasons for me to pick it up immediately. And, I have to admit that I am not disappointed after having read it. The stories are based on real folklore, legends and even true hauntings. The narration is lucid and flowing that’s what makes it even more alluring to go on reading. The stories start from the old times coming to a modern time towards the end. The first few stories are based on real ghost sightings and hauntings. The last few however seemed more animated to me, perhaps the setting might have made the difference. Although the writer has admitted that she has fictionalized the stories a bit but the Part one stories were really spine-chilling and scary. I would say, that the book remains true to its name, and the stories from the silent hills actually make you wonder whether next you should visit a mountain area or not, as I have heard many stories too from my in-laws being married into a Pahadi Household. They claim those to be true, so all the stories that I read in this book, I could relate with them all. However, I would recommend if you are a horror lover, then only read it, it's not a light read for everyone. The stories are vivid with great imagery and for me, it worked well, because I could actually visualise the scenes without much effort. There was not elaborate build-up for the apparitions or ghosts to appear in the scenario or the stories, they came just like that, within a few lines only. This keeps the interest even more intact because you already get the taste of what you are expecting from the book. I would say, give it a read once for sure, or gift it to someone you know who loves horror. This could be the next horror book they would surely like, ‘Ghosts of the Silent Hills’ by Anita Krishan.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Creepy🎃, spooky👻 yet addictive 🤯
*by M***L on 30 September 2024*

Okay, I'm giving this book a solid five because the way the author narrated the stories. She is an excellent story teller for sure 🏕️ 🌨️🍵🫖 📖. I'm going to write my review by pros and cons. Pros 🏔️❄️☃️ 🌷: 1. As I said earlier- excellent story narration 📖 🏕️ ☕. 2. Sometimes I forgot that I was reading and I was in her world with all those characters 🌌🌝🏞️. 3. She made a great effort 👏🏽 to keep the readers engaged 🧐🫨 throughout because as she mentioned, that these are the stories based on true events and she made sure not to present the stories blant 🍚 and she spiced them up very well 🍛🍲🍜🥘🧆. 4. I'm not sure if I should add this point in pros but however, all those stories has a similar thing which is:the dead people were once happy 😊, joyful 😁, kind 🥰 souls but after their dismise they became vengeful 😡, bitter👺 and evil 👹except for a few 🍂. I wonder 🤔 what makes those souls so hollow 💀 and cold 🧊. 5. Finally, the discription of the mountains and the forests of Shimla was breath taking wowwwwwww 🏔️🏔️🏔️⛰️🌳🌲🪵🍃☘️🌿🌱🍄 🏞️ Cons 🌋🔥🏜️🌵: 1. It made me sad when kids were involved and affected directly or indirectly. 😥☹️😞 2. And at the end of some stories I felt dissatisfied for some reason maybe because she left it open-ended. 😑😑😑 3. Some stories are hard to believe that it was based on true events because it felt very cinematic. 🙄 📸 📽️🎥 Overall it was a best read. Very impressive 👍🏽
