Horror Essentials: Classic Tales of Terror
This collection is a sampling of some of the greatest horror stories ever written. Spanning several centuries, they are just as spine tingling today as they were when they were first written. From Washington Irving’s 'Legend of Sleepy Hollow', which could be considered America’s first ghost story, to the tortured, but artistically skillful dark visions of Edgar Allan Poe, this is the perfect collection of all that is creepy and spooky. Also included here are the genre-defining works of the master Howard Phillips Lovecraft, and an appearance by Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Also included is Frankenstein's creator - Mary Shelly - as well as a vampire short story from one of her companions on that stormy night in the 18th century when she imagined her greatest creation; a poignant creature revived by electricity and – arguably – the first zombie. You’ll find stories about ghosts, monsters, and murderous madmen.
Within these pages you’ll find the very roots of modern horror.
Includes nightmares from the following horror masters:
Johann Ludwig Tieck
John Polidori
Washington Irving
Mary Shelley
Nathaniel Hawthorne
Edgar Allan Poe
HP Lovecraft
Robert Louis Stevenson
Oscar Wilde
Arthur Machen
Arthur Conan Doyle
Ambrose Pierce
Algernon Blackwood
Bram Stoker

This affordable collection is essential reading for all who love horror and a good scare!
