Every now and then, fans of the horror genre need to take a step back from the endless piles of over-the-top gorefests and Stephen King wannabes and indulge in the classic stories that have served as the foundation that modern horror literature is built upon. You need to remind yourself where it all came from, and how well it was done.

A collection of such classic tales of the spooky and macabre is just what Dr. Acula would prescribe for such a need, and who better to compile such a reading list than the personification of creeping terror himself?

Do yourself a favor and pick this book up for the next dark and stormy night. The Doctor commands it!
