A drunken cowboy commists murder and is brought to justice, but not by judge and jury. And a in a dark Boston museum, scientists attempt to reanimate an ancient mummy. The all star authors include Issac Asimov, L. Frank Baum, Ambrose Bierce, Robert Bloch, Willa Cather, Helen Eustis, H.P. Lovecraft, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Henry Kuttner, Fritz Lieber, Washington Irving, Richard Matheson, Ogden Nash, Edgar Allan Poe, Mark Twain, and Edith Wharton.
