About this title

Synopsis

Apart from Rod Serling, screenwriter Richard Matheson wrote more teleplays for the cult classic The Twilight Zone than any other writer. Many of these episodes became the series' most acclaimed and most frequently aired. Published here for the first time are eight original scripts. Each is preceded by an introduction and commentary that lends insight into Matheson's creative process, how he felt about the adaptation of his scripts, and his relationship with Rod Serling. Information about the fate of two "lost" scripts and suggestions for further reading and viewing are also included. Volume Two includes the final six complete Twilight Zone scripts Matheson wrote for the show.

Reviews

Richard Matheson's The Twilight Zones Scripts: Volume 2, edited by horror expert Stanley Wiater, collects six of Matheson's teleplays from Rod Serling's classic TV series. This has been a banner year for the veteran author, whose recent work includes a novel, Hunted Past Reason, and a children's book, Abu and the 7 Marvels.
