In collaboration with the Horror Writers Association, New York Times bestselling author and master of horror Jonathan Maberry has compiled a gruesome collection of terrifying stories--in tribute to Alvin Schwartz's classic Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark series--that will absolutely chill readers to the bone. So turn off your lamps, click on your flashlights, and prepare--if you dare--to be utterly spooked!"-- Provided by publisher.
