A horror source book for the modern day, this book provides some very unique and chilling creatures that are not only a refreshing step away from the standard werewolves and vampires, but also disturbingly detailed. (which is a good thing)
Graphically the book delivers with well inked black and white drawings of each creature mentioned, giving a good reference to go by. (Copy/paste is also enabled so you can copy desired creatures into pic files with ms paint or another program for easier use in your campaigns.)
Each horror is aptly described, with a short into story, detailed origins, and run down of what evidence investigators are likely to find at the since of an attack. Gumshoe stats are also provided along with a short description of the creature and any unique combat capabilities it may possess.
Over all this book is excellent for any contemporary horror campaign that needs a little touch of "never before encountered terrors" and can be easily adapted to other genres with a little work.
The only complaint I do have is text copying, while enabled is not functional, requiring you to rewrite any needed info from the book by hand instead of using copy/paste to add it into a word pad/note pad file when writing up adventures.
Art Quality: Very Satisfied
Text Quality: Extremely Satisfied
Value for Money: Very Satisfied
Over all: The best $15 I've spent on a rpg supplement in the past 6 months.
