My favourite collection of horror stories.
Horror stories edited by Etchison. There's some really good stuff here, including stories by Morrell, Koontz, and King, and some other stuff that isn't terribly great. I loved almost all of Clive Barker's early horror, for example, but here we have his "In the Hills, The Cities," a great title for a story that I just found rather silly. All in all, though, a pretty good collection. Maybe 3 and a half stars.
Solid collection of horror. Best part was the that the selection actually pushed at the boundaries of what could be included in the horror genre. Favorite stories in the collection were:The Whisperer, by Brian LumleyTwilight of the Dawn, by Dean KoontzBut at my Back I always Hear, by David Morrell
This was a good collection of Horror stories, by a variety of writers. For me - a Stephen King lover - it was a great way to find new authors I’d like to check out.My favourite story was definitely Clive Barker’s ‘In the Hills, the Cities’. This is an outstanding concept that I would love to read more about - I couldn’t get enough of it!Would definitely look into the collections in this series, as I really enjoyed this read 👍🏻.
