I don’t think I’ve ever been so enamored by Tim Burton as much as I have by reading The Melancholy Death of Oyster Boy & Other Stories. I’ve always been a fan of weird and creepy, and I think Burton did an outstanding job with these stories. They were weird, creepy, melancholy (ha, see what I did there?), and really, REALLY strange. Some stories were one sentence long, but that’s all it needed. Burton has a knack for creating strange and creepy stories and it’s wonderful!
