The Mount Everest of scary anthologies James H. Wilson I am now on my second copy of of the Wise and Fraser anthology. I read my first copy (purchased in the late 1950's)to death. Over many years this book has remained one of the greatest anthologies of scary stories ever put toghter. As the title implies it is broken into two parts; stories that have terrifying situations and supernatural stories. It was first published in 1944 so do not look for s. "Highly recommended!" according to R. D. Ashby. This is the bedrock of horror anthologies; the quintessential collection of spine-chilling tales; the keystone in any serious horror buff's collection. Without it, your library is pitifully incomplete. However, I must caution you that this book only contains wonderfully enduring classics, i.e.: tales that have withstood the test of time. If you want the stuff---blood, guts and worms ad nauseam-. Indispensible for Ghost Story Lovers C. Sahu I've read all the stories in this book at least 3 times. Most of the times I skip around, but twice I've read straight through -- the stories are so consistently good, and, though wide ranging, complement each other so well. These are NOT horror stories. Horror (to me, at least) implies not only more explicit violence, but also an attitude that reality is, at core, physically and morally chaotic
