Critic reviews

"When Peter Straub turns on all his jets, no one in the scream factory can equal him." (Stephen King)"This selection is less about magic or gothic terror than about pinching the reader's psychological nerve..." (Publishers Weekly)

Very hard to listen to

The sharp intake of breath by Ron McLarty throughout the narrative made it very difficult to listen to. Not very enjoyable

A crazy book of Top Terror Tales

...if you like short stories in the Horror genre - this will be a very interesting one for you and a very, very different format! It took me a while to work out what was going on! A lot of very sophisticated tales are contained within - and more than a few of them will make you cringe and look over your shoulder!!!
