Some Will Not Sleep
Ratings10
Average rating3.7
In ghastly harmony with the nightmarish visions of the award-winning writer's novels, these stories blend a lifelong appreciation of horror culture with the grotesque fascinations and childlike terrors that are the author's own. Adam L.G. Nevill's best early horror stories are collected here for the first time.

DNF: What God Hath Wrought?, Doll Hands, To Forget and Be Forgotten, & Florrie
I just couldn't get into these stories beyond the first few pages. I do suggest those that like “Tender is the Flesh” read the Doll Hands story.
4-5: Pig Thing, The Ancestors, & The Age of Entitlement
The rest of the stories were average content and writing for horror shorts. I would highly suggest The Ancestors story, it completely made the book worth reading.
Have to say I am not a big fan of short story collections. I always find that there are a couple of good stories and the rest seem like fillers. There are NO fillers in this book just 11 wonderfully twisted creepy tales from the mad mind of Mr Nevill. Standout stories for me are Original Occupant, Yellow Teeth, Doll Hands and the stomach churning League of Gentlemenesque Mothers Milk. If you like horror and you haven't read any of Adam Nevill's books you must.
