With this being said, I was really into this novella, loving everything about it until about the 70% mark. I love the humor and witty dialogue he is able to bring to even the darkest, most haunting tales.Īlso, his books always go there, all the way to the deepest, most disturbing crevices of the human mind. The style is edgy AF, yet feels like Classic Horror all the same. In the aftermath, Sawyer seems to be the only one with a plan to limit the destruction.įirst, let me just chat a bit about how much I love SGJ's writing. What starts off as a fairly innocent prank, however, turns more deadly than this group of teens could have ever imagined. The same one who happened to recently punish the friend group for sneaking into a movie unpaid. Night of the Mannequins follows Sawyer, and his group of friends, when a prank goes horribly wrong.ĭisguising a discarded mall mannequin as a patron at the local movie theater seemed like the perfect way to get back at the stuffy assistant manager. I see the name, Stephen Graham Jones, on the cover and immediately pick it up. Jumping into this novella, I wasn't quite sure what to expect. Night of the Mannequins is a BRUTAL work of Psychological Horror, straight from the mind of one of my favorite Horror writers, Stephen Graham Jones.
