FREAKS AND FANTASIES
As for FREAKS AND FANTASIES, it’s the first Robbins publication in over sixty years, and for that reason alone deserves a look.
FEATHER: TALES OF ISOLATION AND DESCENT
FEATHER is a true oddity that exists somewhere in the arena of J.G. Ballard and Ian Sinclair, yet will never be mistaken for anything other than itself.
A FEAST OF FRIGHTS FROM THE HORROR ZINE
Each of these anthologies has been bigger and better than the last, meaning A FEAST OF FRIGHTS is the most substantial of them all (at least until the next one).
FANTASTIC MEMORIES
As the title promises, this short story collection purports to be a compilation of memories, most of them fantastic and/or macabre in nature.
THE EYES
It’s the first and thus far only English language collection of stories by the late Jesus Ignacio Aldapuerta, the so-called “Andalusian de Sade” who specialized in scatological excess.
ENEMY OF THE GOOD: POSTSCRIPTS 19
The contents are varied enough in style, quality and subject matter that it’s difficult to render any sort of overall verdict–to some of you I’m sure that fact will be off-putting, while others will take it as a strong recommendation.
Five Books Called Halloween
Five books called Halloween. That’s all.
Yuletide Horror Fiction
Christmas-themed horror fiction is as rich and varied as Yuletide horror cinema.
DARK SCREAMS VOLUME ONE
The inaugural volume of an e-book anthology series edited by Brian James Freeman and Richard Chizmar, who run the popular horror magazine Cemetery Dance. That explains the caliber of talent they assembled for this five story volume, which is impressive, and quite eclectic.
ANYHOW STORIES
This remains one of the great curiosities of the Victorian era, a children’s book of considerable richness, bizarre, and not a little darkness. You’ll find few books of any sort with as strong a grasp of otherworldly apprehension as these “Anyhow Stories,” not all of which are explicitly horrific.
