We may surround ourselves with the trappings of technology, but in the face of the powers of darkness we are as helpless as our ancestors at the dawn of time. The concrete, plastic and metal cannot keep out the vibration of the unknown which lurks rabid in unseen corners.
Here, in this chilling collection first published in 1976, are stories from writers who have plumbed the dankest recesses of those terrors which haunt our sleep and bring us suddenly awake.
