He is an esteemed expert in the genre and has made cameo appearances in a number of horror films. His anthologies have debuted new fiction by Stephen King, Lawrence Block, Joyce Carol Oates, Ramsey Campbell, and Brian Lumley. Del Howison, founder of the world’s most famous horror emporium and bookstore, Dark Delicacies, has used his extensive friendships in the horror field to compile this anthology. Howison lives in L
In "The Reincarnate," Ray Bradbury makes a reanimated corpse the focus of a poetic reverie on death and loss. Copyright © Reed Business Information, a division of Reed Elsevier Inc. Clive Barker serves up a pastiche of the antique penny dreadful in "Haeckel's Tale," but with the traditional subtexts of sex and death unapologetically exposed to view. Howison, the proprietor of Burbank, Calif.'s Dark Delicacies horror bookstore, and Gelb, co-editor of the Hot Blood anthology series, have plundered their Rolodexes to recruit a formidable lineup of horror's top creative talents. Supernatural and psychological horror interweave seamlessly in John Farris's "Bloody Mary Morning," a tale of modern horror with a classic Ambrose Bierce–style twist. . From Publishers Weekly If, as Howison writes in his afterword, "Horror has always been the blues of literature," then this anthology of 20 new tales of the macabre is an all-star concert w
The State of tje Horror Genre, 2005 Bookreporter There are a number of quality stories in the horror genre but few vehicles in which to showcase them.

"Horror that makes you think" according to javamonster. No, this collection of short stories isn't an intellectual excercise in academia, but it does have such a wide variety of horror styles by excellent writers, that it DOES make you think about "What is horror?" What is horror, what does it try to say and accomplish?As others have said, the horror styles range from poetic (Harryhausen) to hack and slash, and everything in between. There's even political horror in there. After all, what makes horror, horror? Blood and guts, sure. But also what people do to other people. A Strangely Good Group of Stories First off, the title of this book is a little misleading. Dark Delicacies is not a trip into fantastic eroticism, vampiric tales of obscene delight, or anything in the vein of goth. This book carries the name of a book shop, nothing more, that is known for carrying only horror books and other such things dealing with the occult, with Del Howison as the proprietor of this shop as well as co-editor of this book.After I learned as much, I found myself diving deep into the terror-tales in this book, and no book in recen
