Synopsis

Attention, suspense fans! Here I am back again with as spooky a collection of ghosts and other supernatural things as ever kept anybody awake at night. In these stories, you will discover astonishing things about the long dead, the recent dead, and the un-dead, see horrifying sights and hear terrifying sounds . . . a vampire bat wing with an evil odor and strange powers . . . some sinister adventures aboard a model train. You will encounter a doorway with something exceedingly peculiar on the other side . . . a flying saucer of remarkable design . . . an uneasy grave where the wishes of the deceased have been ignored. If you are bold enough to read these eleven stories all the way through, I'll wager that you will see some familiar things in quite a new light. Happy reading! Or should I say happy shuddering? -- Alfred Hitchcock. Contents include: The Triumph of Death by H. Russell Wakefield, The Strange Valley by T. V. Olsen, The Christmas Spirit by Dorothy B.
