Sunday Edition: Creepy Short Story Collections

The nights are getting longer and Halloween is getting closer, so if last week’s Sunday Edition of horror films didn’t quench your thirst for everything and anything spooky, here are some suggestions for creepy short story collections. 

American fantastic tales : terror and the uncanny from Poe to the pulps edited by Peter Straub: Forty-four classics of fantasy fiction, including selections from Washington Irving, Willa Cather, Kate Chopin, H.P. Lovecraft, and others

Best Ghost and Horror Stories by Bram Stoker: Selection of 14 spine-tingling stories by author of Dracula.

Triptych of Terror: Three Chilling Tales By the Masters of Gay Horror by John Michael Curlovich, Michael Rowe, David Thomas Lord: A gay teen in a conservative small town discovers that Halloween means so much more than costumes and candy. In an industrial town, an overzealous televangelist learns that on Halloween you might not get the chance to "do unto others" before they do unto you. A Celtic legend born on Pride Day takes out its vengeance on the streets of Greenwich Village on Halloween. 

There Once Lived a Woman Who Tried to Kill Her Neighbor’s Baby by Ludmilla Petrushevskaya: Vanishings and apparitions, nightmares and twists of fate, mysterious ailments and supernatural interventions haunt these stories by the Russian master Ludmilla Petrushevskaya, heir to the spellbinding tradition of Gogol and Poe. Blending the miraculous with the macabre, and leavened by a mischievous gallows humor, these bewitching tales are like nothing being written in Russia-or anywhere else in the world-today.

Night Shift by Stephen King: From the depths of darkness, where hideous rats defend their empire, to dizzying heights, where a beautiful girl hangs by a hair above a hellish fate, this chilling collection of twenty short stories will plunge readers into the subterranean labyrinth of the most spine-tingling, eerie imagination of our time.

For more spooky collections, swing by the PS648.H6 section on the second floor of the Terrell Library where you will find many more collections!
