Reprinted from the pages of the magazine Midnight Graffiti comes this spine-chilling collection of stories of horror and terror from the most acclaimed masters of the genre. These 20 tales include some of the most gripping fiction I've ever encountered. Consider, for example, David J. Schow's "Bad Guy Hats," a detailed study of intraspecific predator-prey relationships and social ecology that will have you scrutinizing even the kindest-seeming of people with suspicion for years to come. Or Stephen King's "Rainy Season," first published in this collection, a tale of small-town mores and a warning to travellers that even the most picturesque of towns may turn out to be lethal traps. Or Dan Simmons' "The River Styx Runs Upstream," a story of resurrection -- with a ghastly difference. Midnight Graffiti offers these and 17 more stories that will curdle your blood. Caution: Do not read at night. And be sure to sleep with a nightlight on after reading the stories in this collection.
