A bedtime tale of terror is told as a young girl thinks a monster lives in her room... What if the monster just wants to be friends?
But what if it wants something else?
Do not miss A Monster Under the Bed - The newest Grimm Tale of Terror by the company that does horror best!
It is not so much as a horror that this story succeeds, because the comic format is really not as well suited for the genre, but rather in the combination of horror with some other aspects where the story comes together. The previous issue was a bit more of a surprise in terms of its quality, and really the writing on it was better than what is seen here. Nonetheless, the story here does invoke some of the earlier days of this publisher and it is nice to see that the format still works, even when the story is not as much of a standout.

Grimm Tales of Terrorconstantly reinventing itself, pushing its own boundaries and expanding what it can accomplish. So even though this issue's main story isn't as strong as previous installments, I still highly recommend this issue. It maintains that spooky adventure atmosphere that permeates the entire series while pressing ahead boldly for new territory and ideas. I can't wait to see what they do next month. Read Full Review
Overall, another good issue to a great series which every horror fan should be reading. Read Full Review
Overall, the story works but could have better set the reader up for surprises instead of giving all the hints up front. That's part of what made EC and other horror anthologies of the past so successful -- any hints were so subtle, if they were given at all, that they were only obvious upon re-reading. And that's what I'd love to see GRIMM TALES OF TERROR evolve into, and what I see it as having the ripe potential to become. Previous issues have achieved this, but this one just falls a little bit short in its delivery. Read Full Review
