"It Sounds Like an Adult Video...or a Bad Board Game" by fishifishi Pros: It's not as mind-numbing as the show that it's (sort of) based on

Decrepit Crypt of Nightmares: Zombie Rampage (34/50) by cdm72 Pros: At least TRIES to be original.
Cons: Fails miserably in all other areas. Good old Todd Sheets. You want to know what my favorite thing about Todd Sheets is? That his most recent movie credit is from 2000. That’s almost a full decade of quiet. Then again, I’m pretty sure if I say his name ...

Cirque Du Freak #6: Darren goes primal by ssjakira1 Pros: Darren gets awesome and more plot advancement!
Cons: The end part felt a little contrived. Welcome to Darren Shan's Cirque Du Freak series. Located in the teen section of the bookstore, it's probably best left for them to read. Still, if you're interested in a bit of teen horror, it's not a bad series to check ...
