Best Ghost and Horror Stories

While best known for literature's greatest, most popular, and most famous vampire novel, Dracula, Bram Stoker also wrote superlative short stories.

Indeed, he was a genius at creating horror within the confines of a short tale.

Now readers can sample Stoker's mastery in this treasury of fourteen spine-tingling stories.

Not all the selections deal with the ghostly and supernatural, but they are always bizarre, and some—like "e;The Squaw"e; and "e;The Burial of the Rats"e;—are equal to Poe at his best.

In addition to these two masterly tales, the collection includes "e;The Crystal Cup,"e; "e;The Chain of Destiny,"e; "e;The Castle of the King,"e; "e;The Dualists"e; (probably Stoker's most horrifying story), "e;The Judge's House,"e; "e;The Secret of the Growing Gold,"e; "e;A Dream of Red Hands,"e; "e;Crooken Sands,"e; "e;Dracula's Guest,"e; and three more.

Lovers of occult and supernatural fiction will delight in this inexpensive collection of ghost and horror stories, called by Stephen King "e;absolutely champion short stories."e;
