halpmeHey, guys would really appreciate it if you can help me find this book!
*SPOILER ALERT I WILL BE TELLING THE END OF THE STORY IN ORDER TO GIVE MORE DETAILS*
I know it was a picture book for sure and it was a horror book. The drawings kind of had a Dr. Seuss style to it but not exactly. Basically, it follows the story of five (I'm not sure if it was five) people who are in a forest and need a place to stay. They come across a house who is inhabited by an old couple. The old couple will let them stay in exchange for a story.
I only remember three stories and some are not in exact details so here we go.
There was one story about a guy who encountered aliens. I cannot remember anything else but he tells his story and the old couple takes him to his room.
Another one was the story of this blonde girl. She tells the story of her favourite ice cream brand when she was little. One day she gets invited to see the factory and how they make the ice cream (similar to Charlie and the chocolate factory). She has these amazing dreams of what it will look like. When she gets there it turns out to be the complete opposite. They drain the cows of their milk and kill dogs and children to make their ice cream. In the end, the horrified girl goes home and vows to never eat the ice cream again. In the end, she cannot resist her favourite brand and eats it despite knowing the origins of it.
So basically each person tells their story to the old couple and the old couple gives them a room. Soon one guy is left but he does not have a story. So the old couple refuses to give him a room and he leaves. He basically wanders the forest and comes across the most horrifying things ever. Monsters, and all these weird creatures. They all end up chasing him until he ends up back at the old couple's house. There he tells them his story of what happened to him in the forest so they let him stay and I think that's how the story ends.
Please help me find the book, I would very much appreciate it.
