Dark Divinations by Naching T. Kassa (Book Review #761)

Dark Divinations is a horror anthology consisting of 14 frightening tales set in Victorian times. Each story is geared- around a method of divination and is written by a different author. The collection of stories consists of a young woman with powers to manipulate, an Englishman discovering powers in dreams, a young American bride returning to her English husband, and more.

The stories had each setup, character building, and historical references. The work is more suitable for people who like historical novels and short read stories. The authors had a good hand in writing, and I enjoyed the thoughtful considerations that were embedded in the stories.

The literature was like an anthology for those who like Gothic short stories.

I particularly enjoyed the parts where the old ways of shady medical treatments and police investigations merged with dark horror plots. Everything about the stories then became unique to its time structure, and that influenced where the story was going.
