This winner of the Horror Writers Association Best Anthology Award is maximum strength horror fiction, to be taken for fast-acting relief from peace of mind. When taken as an antidote to the ordinary, these more than 75 stories alleviate feelings of security and the belief that what you can't see can't hurt you. Active abominable monsters, dark and stormy nights, demons, evil incarnate, fog-shrouded streets, malevolent children, psychopaths, reanimated corpses, and things that go bump in the night. The warnings are not to exceed personal threshold levels for fright because these stories deliver powerful jots to the imagination and may prove addictive.
