Novella about a teenager who comes across an evil dude with a mysterious camera and the danger that enters his life because of the pair. Short and fun with kind of a Stranger Things but low key vibe to it since it is set in the 1980s and involves the paranormal. I did get sick of all the references of the teen to being overweight...jeez...seemed like every page there was a reference or quip about it. That wore out quick.
This is the first thing I've ever read by Joe Hill. I realize he is not his dad, yet I expected him to have his own voice, for whatever reason. He doesn't, of course, but that's a good thing. I don't even want to think the day we lose Sai King, but at least we have Joe to follow his steps and keep scaring us with strange tales that simply cannot be.
This would have been 4 stars if it had ended right after the creepiest moment and left a few questions unanswered. The 20 pages after that skin-crawling moment didn't add anything for me. Which is a shame, the first 50-ish pages were really interesting and well written.
This Hardcover copy is numbered 76 of 600 copies signed by Richard Chizmar.
“Snapshot” is a fascinating novella that defies categorization outside Weird.

It’s interesting that the timeline of the story also parallels the career of Jack Kevorkian, as the aim of his life’s work is discusse...
You've probably read multiple magazines in your life, right? I mean, we all have. But I'm sure 99% of you would say that you have never read an entire magazine - cover to cover, including the advertisements. Am I right? Well, the reason for that is that you've never read Cemetery Dance magazine. And while I have read a few magazines to 90%, I have never read every word on every page until this issue.We start off with some poignant words from publisher/executive editor, Richard Chizmar. If the na...
Creepy and well plotted. It almost seems like it could be an episode of Stranger Things if that show told a different story each episode.I really liked the fact that the hero of this moody story is bumbling and awkward. That, plus the fact that the other characters are all fallible gives them more weight than many characters from much longer works of fiction. My one gripe is that Mr. Hill doesn't seem to have actually spent any time in the Bay Area (where most of the story takes place). The weat...
I love Cemetary Dance Magazines!! Such great stuff packed into this one!! And a Joe Hill special at that. Happy Reading.....
Kind of sentimental.
Unnerving Magazine ReviewSpur of the moment, step aside reviews waiting in the wings because I get excited about reading a publication where I get to flip real life pages!Reviewing magazines is a whole bin of candy worms, squirmies if you’re a Bulk Barn shopper, that Unnerving Magazine isn’t quite ready to jump into. However, there are exceptions to every rule, written in washable marker or not. The most recent issue of Cemetery Dance features a novella by Joe Hill, the following review is of sa...
