“Chills guaranteed. They Move Below is a great collection of dark tales. Mr Drinkwater has a delightfully warped imagination. Now if you will excuse me it is late and I need to go and turn on all the lights...”
—Grab This Book
“I find great horror stories tend to be more about the things you don’t know than the things you do. Drinkwater has expertly ended several of the stories with great handfuls of doubt, leaving you guessing and drawing your own conclusions. A collection of very readable stories which give a comprehensive view of the genre.”

“What impressed me so much, however, is the quality of Drinkwater’s prose. He writes with considerable sophistication and an almost urbane style that is so pleasurable to read. I also enjoyed the variety of the stories, with the different voices and perspectives. A vibrant, interesting and frequently unsettling collection that deserves considerable success.”
