About Sinister Tidings

Here you will find a collage of likes and dislikes from RTS’ Spyder Collins. The primary focus is to bring fun and indie flashes of art and not so mainstream artists. There is nothing fancy, revealing, political or otherwise world shaping. Just things, introductions, reminiscing and fun in the world of literature, art and music, to which I hope you enjoy and find some pleasure in.

16 Heatherdale Drive - David Jester

With 16 Heatherdale Drive you have five short stories rolled tightly into a devious collection of sinister horror. Not a tale in the lot was filler or a waste of the reader’s time to get to the next story. Each has merits of its own and each was well presented. 

Of special interest is the short tale that bears the collection’s title. It is a tightly written stroll down a dark and lonely street. I did enjoy some of the tongue in cheek humor sewn into the fabric of the horror, intended - perhaps, clever, definitely. The dialog throughout the collection is refreshing, real and genuine.

I found some fun and chills in Repeat Offender, as well. Especially enjoyed the internal struggles and dark depths to which the horror was delivered. Nice short read, well worth the price and it promises to be a sit down and savor type of collection.

For the reader, this is a nice collection of shorts, if that is your bag. I don’t think you will be disappointed and will enjoy the tales Mr. Jester spins for you. Worth a spin down Heatherdale Drive in my opinion.


For the writer, perhaps dialog is a point of interest here. Though well written stories the learning factor really is a stand out. Just some good horror to enjoy!
