Here's the contents list:
"The Forbidden," by Clive Barker
-- some things should just be kept quiet, as an enterprising young researcher finds out
"Dreams May Come," by H. Warner Munn
-- if the past could change, would we want it that way?
"The Dark Country," by Dennis Etchison
--Mexico is the setting for death in this story
"Dead to the World," by Allen Ashley
--A man who experiments with drugs in his younger days lives to regret it
"The Generation Waltz," by Charles L. Grant (set in Oxrun, for those of you familiar with that place)
"Don't Open That Door," by Frances Garfield
--a monster in the closet with a twist
"The Frolic," by Thomas Ligotti (one of my favorite stories in the book; I love this author!)
-- a doctor in an insane asylum has to deal with one of his patient's demons
"The Sorcerer's Jewel," by Robert Bloch
--a photographer gets more than he bargained for when he seeks a new way to jazz up his photos (excellent story)
"The Strange Years," by Brian Lumley
--a horror story with an environmental warning
"Red," by Richard Christian Matheson
--A very short but powerful story about the aftermath of all too real horror
"Ever the Faith Endures," by Manly Wade Wellman
--A man from America meets his British cousin who has an awesome responsibility to uphold. Another great story here by an excellent author.
"Extension 201," by Cyril Simsa
--The search for a missing telephone extension, combined with a turn-of-the century expedition up the Amazon leads to some surprising results
"The Last Wolf," by Karl Edward Wagner
--The story of the last writer of books; very poignant & appropriate when you think about it after you read it.
"Tongue in Cheek," by Mike Grace
-- A story that takes place on a deserted road
"In the X-Ray," by Fritz Leiber
--Another excellent story by an excellent author; sort of an old-fashioned horror story but still good
"The Bad People," by Steve Rasnic Tem
--Another story set in Mexico; a man and his son are shadowed by an evil force
"A Place of No Return," by Hugh B. Cave
--I love this author's work; it is quite old-fashioned but still left a few hackles on the back of my neck. A professor goes to Haiti to take pictures of zombies and well...
"The Terminus," by Kim Newman
--A police detective goes looking for a missing person and gets much more than he bargained for in the London Underground
"The Green Man," by Kelvin Jones
--Another Green Man story; this one is okay.
"The Voice of the Beach," by Ramsey Campbell
--imho, the best of the bunch; I'd read it also in Campbell's book Alone With the Horrors. Very creepy; a good story to read late at night when the house is quiet. Mythos related.
So there...you have some very talented authors to choose from in this book; Anyone who likes their horror more or less cerebral will totally enjoy this one. If you're looking for the hack/slash/lots-of-gore stuff, you may be a bit bored here.
