This isn't the place to discuss how these books scared you. If you wish to start a thread about that, do it at a forum, not Wikipedia. Thank you.--SUIT 05:14, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
Can anyone else back me up on the books always smelling musty/rotted and being stained? Every copy I've ever seen either smells like urine/soil/rot or has grease stains on most of the pages, or both. Two people have backed me up on this claim. I'm pretty sure it's a coincidence, and just reflects how old the books are, but it's still a disturbing coincidence given the content of the books and the fear they've obviously driven into so many readers. -24.8.212.239 05:04, 17 February 2007 (UTC)
discusting and horrid pictures and adventures made up of gruesome and mutilating unnerving-surreal nature of beings and animals!
These books never failed to scare the living crap out of me when I was a kid. - Kraas
Horrible. There was a story in one of these about a child's severed head being served as a birthday cake. I read that when I was seven or so, and I haven't touched cake since.
oh yeah, seriously... I believe he went over-board with his series, how can a 7 year old read, heck, look at the illustrations in those books! They're disgusting, unnerving, horrid... still good though!
I had nightmares for 3 friggin months when I read these books! KinseyLOL 22:39, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Traumatized
HHAHAHA, It seems that we've all been traumataized by this book.
I'd allways be affraid to flip a page and see one of those horrid pictures. I remember yelling once I saw one of the illustrations. I can't remember how old I was, mebbe 13! ah. . . I'm traumatazied forever. Heh.
At least I know how to kill a witch now. Anyone know where to find a black chestnut tree? --ComposerWannabe 00:57, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
I used to cry every time I flipped to the picture from 'Somebody Fell from Aloft'.
And I had nightmares about the coin lady too....... =( And the butcher man..... It scared the living shit out of me as a little kid.
