Miskatonic Books :: Books :: THE BEST HORROR FROM FANTASY TALES edited by Stephen Jones & David Sutton (First Edition Hardcover)

Terror-Packed and Star-Studded, this collection of tales masterfully crafted by the likes of Clive Barker, Robert Bloch, Ramsey Campbell, Hugh B Cave, Dennis Etchison, Charles L Grant, Fritz Leiber, Thomas Ligotti, Kim Newman, Karl Edward Wagner, Manly Wade Wellman, and many more offers the finest horror fiction published in Britain's multiple award-winning magazine Fantasy Tales during its first ten years. Its stories as chilling as they are ingenious, this absorbing volume conjures up a universe of strange and frightening worlds: worlds where deranged urban myths become horrific realities; where missing telephone extensions are the locus of terrible secrets; where terror itself can brutally shatter a professor's skepticism concerning the supernatural; where night-mare visions breed lunacy enough to dismay the mind of the most equable reader.
