About this title

Synopsis

A chilling anthology of seventeen frightening tales features works by best-selling horror masters, such as David Morrell, Charles L. Grant, Gahan Wilson, and others

Reviews

Terror, violence and dread animate the 17 compelling stories in this horror anthology compiled by master-of-the-genre Bloch ( Psycho ) . In "Pick Me Up" author David J. Schow directs two homicidal maniacs into each other's path and then puts them both in the hands of a third psychotic with the perfect method for killing them both. A similar theme dominates William F. Nolan's "Him, Her, Them" as two lethal lovers set out to seduce each other. The medieval monks in Chelsea Quinn Yarbro's "Confession of a Madman" keep the heretical madman of the title chained in a dungeon because he believes germs cause disease. In "Enduring Art" by Robert E. Vardeman, the question of immortality is addressed by an artist who turns mass killer so his work will live forever. A predilection for sacrifice--specifically blood sacrifice--weaves through these narratives, most of which demonstrate Bloch's contention that everyone is fascinated by death.
