![]() ![]() Carroll drew her first comic in 2010 and won the Joe Shuster Award for Outstanding Web Comic Creator thirteen months later. ![]() It was also genuinely scary and in that way would appeal to fans of paranormal fiction. I think teens would enjoy it and would read it in an hour, like I did. I would also maybe bring it out in October as it’s scary stuff. That’s where I found it–in my library’s YA new releases. I think this would be a good buy for a library’s Young Adult collection. I liked that Carroll didn’t dial it back. The style kind of reminded me of those Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark books by Alvin Schwartz combined with vintage Tim Burton and a little bit Neil Gaiman with some Stephen King thrown in for good measure. The vignettes were entertaining and thoroughly creepy. All the vignettes (I suppose you could call them short stories) were related to the theme that creepy, haunted, scary, predatory, etc things lurk in forests. Through the Woods collects five or six short vignettes that could be classified in the horror genre. ![]() This graphic novel was scary, but delightfully so. ![]()
