16 Heatherdale Drive by David Jester is a delightfully creepy collection of short horror stories. I enjoyed the way the author wove the stories for each to end in an unexpected twist. The opening story, The Uninvited left me breathless. As I read I tried to figure out exactly what was causing the events in the story, whether it was something supernatural or the protagonist was going crazy. I didn't know what was happening until the story was over. I like stories that keep me guessing.I thought that Repeat Offender was the creepiest of the five short stories in this collection. The main character of the story is a despicable petty thief whose laziness and greed lead him into some very frightening circumstances.  My favorite of these stories was 16 Heatherdale Drive. The story reminded me of the thrillers I used to read as an adolescent. The story Van Vampire was short but creepy with an unexpected ending. I plan to read it out loud next time a younger family member wants a scary story.If you like frightening and thrilling short stories you should read this book. A+ book. I highly recommend.  I was very excited to see that this author has many other books available for kindle.
