"The Leadington Incident" recounts the disturbing experience of a Cabinet minister who suddenly perceives that though the people around him move and talk as though alive, they are all actually just animated corpses or sleepwalking zombies. Patson visits a psychiatrist after he becomes convinced that a race of demons masquerading as men are plotting the overthrow of the human race but what if he's not insane? In "Guest of Honour," a banquet speech becomes a horrifying affair when the keynote speaker realizes his audience is made up of monstrous and menacing creatures.

Orrin Grey said Stories of the Same Sort. I didn't write the introduction to this one, like I did to Valancourt's reissue of Benighted, so hopefully Amazon won't consider it a conflict of interest for me to write this review. Prior to writing the intro to BENIGHTED, I'd read only a handful of short pieces by J.B. Priestley, so when I learned that, along with BENIGHTED, Valancourt had also gotten the rights to reprint this collection of his short weird tales, I was very excited to check it out, and it didn't disappoint.

Priestley Preistley is one of my all time favorite authors and it is almost impossible to find his books.This one did not disappoint.. Carla Gray said Five Stars. JB Priestley is a wonderful writer!
