Award-winning director Guillermo del Toro has chosen the greatest of vintage horror for a new six-volume anthology. The best selection of strange and frightful American short stories may be found in American Supernatural Tales. As Stephen King can confirm, since the time of Edgar Allan Poe, interest in the occult has only risen in American writing. With spooky contributions from some of the country's most renowned authors, including Poe himself, H. P. Lovecraft, Shirley Jackson, Ray Bradbury, Nathaniel Hawthorne, and?of course?Stephen King?the collection honours the depth of this legacy. This is a horrifyingly excellent collection of tales that are alternately phantasmagoric, spectral, and demonic.
