Once upon a time, a mysterious plague beset a quiet village in the woodsa plague of the walking dead.

My Review:

These stories were awesome! All the stories interconnected with each other and were set in the same areas. In the stories, characters from previous stories were seen in the later ones as minor characters. These stories were very gory with lots of blood and violence. I totally loved them. There were short, about 40-50 pages each which made each individual story a quick read. 

My favorite stories were: 

1. Zombie Cinderella
2. Hansel and Gretel are dead
3. Blood Red Riding Hood
4. Beauty is a Beast
5. Zombie Cinderella II: The Ball
6. Revenge of the Little Match Girl
7. The Little Mermaid of Death

I highly recommend these stories if you love zombies and blood.
