These writers have worked in the profession, and while their stories are fictional, the darkness they explore is all too real.

Customer Reviews
Delightfully grim
I received an advance review copy from BookSirens for free, and I am leaving this honest review voluntarily.
I deeply enjoyed this collection of horror stories based around teaching—it made me uncomfortable in the most delightful way. It felt like an exploration of my own stress dreams about school: I have skipped an entire semester or year of a class, and I have to sneak in and take the exam without the teacher/professor ‘s noticing; it’s the end of the year, and I have to clean out my locker but I don’t remember where it is; the teacher/professor detests me and only me (this actually happened to me, but it replays in grotesquerie in dreams). This book perfectly captured that stress dream horror feeling, and now I need a brightly colored blanket and a cookie. Thanks! That was fun.
