Review of Demon Freaks
[Following is a volunteer review of "Demon Freaks" by J.R.R.R. (Jim) Hardison.]
I had never before felt freaking out and laughing wild at the same time until I laid attention to Demon Freaks by J.R.R.R. (Jim) Hardison. I am no fan of horror stories, but this one’s convinced me. Scary stories told in the dark terrify me to the bones but with Hardison’s, he made me chuckle.
The story began after the twins, Bing and Ron Slaughter’s evil history teacher provoked them for their SAT to be held the next day. After their class ended, they decided to study at night with their bandmates, Meat and Kaitlyn but their plan did not turn out as it was. The unexpected violence of weather sent an uncomfortable feeling to one of the twins. Suddenly, the lightning struck Meat’s cabin where the high schoolers are staying, and there, Brom showed up surprisingly with a dagger that started the whole night’s mess. Fortunately, Bing and Ron managed to seize the possessed teacher, but the cursed dagger found its new victim, Meat. A series of confusing events led the twins to a heroic mission to save their friends, Meat and Kaitlyn, from the sinister sacrificial ritual of the cult of golfers to summon a demon. Bing and Ron are torn between saving their friends and taking their SATs in the morning…
Hardison’s humor is manifested in his story’s main characters. I enjoy the twin’s mischievousness and discreet bullying of their annoying history teacher because they are agreeable. The story shows strong brotherhood, friendship, selflessness, and trust amidst the critical situation the characters are facing. I say any reader will be moved when they read this story. In addition, most of all characters, I admire Meat because of how he deals with his possessor. If you will deeply look into his character, he is rare and if you are going to read this book, you will see what I saw in Meat’s personality from the story.
Furthermore, the overall conflicts are thrilling and well-justified by the flow of the story Hardison plotted. He also polished a superb vivid description of the overall story because of the imagery he used. Truly, Hardison is a creatively wry author; from his humorous yet sensible characters to the justification of the story’s conflicts, and the Lord of the Rings effect, I can say I am satisfied with this book. If you are to read Demon Freaks, you may set your expectations at any level you want because I guarantee, Hardison will go higher than that. Plus, when I knew this was a combination of horror and comedy, I knew this was going to be fun and sort of alike R.L. Stine’s Goosebumps horror fiction series. The premier chapter is a catchy starter. It immediately hooked me from its very first line; I could sense that I would be invested in reading Demon Freaks which explains this positive review I created for his work which means, I do not see any negative points. I cannot interfere with and dislike any of the author’s plots and conflicts because they are the key ingredients that I consider makes the story sentimental and awesome.
Moreover, I found no errors in the book which makes it exceptionally well edited. Plus, the textual format is fancy with its font styles and sizes and I can say it is young reader-friendly. Thus, I will reward this enthralling read a well-deserved 4 out of 4 stars. I am satisfied with the book’s thrills because it did not only send chills, but it made me laugh. Hardison’s book is recommended for young and teen readers who are into horror, supernatural, and comical stories, and fan of R.L. Stine’s spooky yet funny stories. Just be cautious of mild language used in Hardison’s story.
