Inspired by Tales From the Crypt, Twilight Zone, and Creep Show, Zenescope goes back to its roots of horror as the publisher known for re-inventing classics delves into an entirely new bag of tricks. From Poe to Lovecraft to brand new Fables, these tales of terror are sure to creep you out in a whole new way!
On the whole this is a very good start to what I hope becomes a very good series, there's a lot of potential to the set-up (as is true with any anthology series) and I really like that the creators didn't skimp on affording our narrator a real character and personality as it helps Grimm Tales of Terror stand out as its own entity and not just something trying to skirt by on the styles of its predecessors as the narrator is her own woman and totally different from say Rod Serling or the Crypt Keeper; recommended.

While the art works well, the writing does not foster any scares. Those aforementioned plot errors detract from the mood and atmosphere of the book. For trying to be a good first impression to incite thrills and chills, Grimm Tales of Terror fails. Read Full Review
I really don't understand the critics of this series. These are, after all, short anthology stories. I personally have this series rated as "my guilty pleasure", and I am loving the creepy, Tales From the Crypt vibe with a moral at the end. Highly recommended.
While this issue isn't mind blowing, considering it feature only 1 tale, the art and writing is good. There seems to be some promise in this series if Zenescope gets back to their roots and resist the urge to bring in too much GFT.
