Description

Why do people love zombie stories so? Vampires are more alluring; werewolves more dangerous, mummies more mystical. And yet, the public’s facination with zombies is mow stronger than ever. Why? Because they are the only monsters that are REAL!

Throughout the world, reports of the walking dead have been recorded and validated for centuries. The dead do walk, and within these pages we shall bring you eleven of the most fantastic zombie tales of modern times. Terrific? You bet! True? you be the judge.

The always fun Vincent Sneed starts us off with an open-ended tale designed to get things rolling with a shudder. After that, anything goes as eight more top masters of the murderous and the macabre tackle America’s favorite monster theme. There are brilliant comedies by NEal Patterson and Adam P. Knave and much, much more. Notable hard-boiled writer Stefan Jackson and real-life crime scene investigator John L. French bring a slam of harsh reality to the mix that will chill everyone in the audience. Not to be outdone, famed editor/writer James Chambers offers us two tales, each of which are destined to become classics in the field. Master horror writer C.J. Henderson is also in the house with a sardonic look at society and a second terror tale set in his world-famous Teddy London universe. Then, if that wasn’t enough, we’ve got a tale by the venerable Robert M. Price as well as one by the prince of zombie lit., Brian Keene!
