* Reviews *
The three volumes in the Dark Graphic Novels series masterfully illustrate many of the most chilling horror stories of classic literature, adapting the texts using simplified language and captivating pictorial design. Each book has a unique artistic style, but the series still offers a cohesive collection featuring the tales of Edgar Men Poe, Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, and a compilation of short stories by famed horror writers in Chilling Tales of Horror by Pedro Rodriguez.
