About this title

About the Author:

Ray Bradbury (1920-2012) was an American novelist, short story writer, essayist, playwright, screenwriter, and poet. Among his best-known works are The Martian Chronicles, The Illustrated Man, and Fahrenheit 451.

From AudioFile:

From the rhythmic "The Demon of the Gibbet" to a classic but updated version of Poe's "Tell-Tale Heart," Rocky Coast Radio Theatre provides two hours of thrilling audio entertainment. Entertainment is a foregone conclusion with William Dufris as a driving force in this anthology of eerie and haunting tales. Each piece creates a charged and intense atmosphere, with sound effects, hushed voices, brooding background music, and even silence. The gem in this collection, "Retroactice Anti-Terror," by Alex Irvine, is a science fiction story that presents a futuristic political horror. Despite scary stories from Ray Bradbury and H.P. Lovecraft, this collection may not cause nightmares. But it most definitely evokes a bit of excitement for listeners. L.E. © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
