Anthology of Classic Horror. Part 1. Illustrated

Authors writing for the horror genre succeed in creating an eerie and frightening atmosphere for the reader. While the featured horror is often supernatural, it may spring from a very real origin.
Several classic horror stories have become icons of the horror genre.
They inspire modern retellings throughout print, on stage, and on film. This collection gathers the best of the supernatural and frightening stories spun by expert storytellers who can weave true thrillers haunted by spirits and visited by vampires; stories where even the buildings contribute to the black humor and apocalyptic natures of the plots.
