There are some mildly interesting plot hooks in here, but that’s all they are- hooks, there’s no development at all. Five of the entries are interconnected, but these pretty much consist of the investigators showing up to witness the aftermath of events. There might be a few ideas which could be developed by a dedicated keeper, but considering the amount of work which would be required, there are far better resources around out there to use for inspiration.
Just a small point, but I also found the writing to be quite clumsy, with a reliance on stilted dialogue and long words, many of which the author didn’t seem to know the meaning of.

As game scenarios, totally worthless. As short fiction, inefficient presentation of mostly trite ideas.
