by Pete Haining
First published 1973
A dark assembly of supernatural terrors from the masters of macabre. Haining's anthology revives the haunting tales of Poe, Stevenson, and Stoker, where the dead refuse to rest and sanity is but a fragile veil. From the creeping dread of "The Tell-Tale Heart" to the gothic horrors of "Dracula's Guest," this is a tour through the shadowy realms of the paranormal, where the line between reality and nightmare blurs. Prepare to lose sleep.
