    Quitters Inc. I reviewed a few weeks ago. I like that short story. Night Shift is King’s best collection, IMO

      I like Night Shift, too, but I think I like Skeleton Crew a little better - although I usually read them back to back, so to me they're like two volumes of one long book

    Some great anthologies, saw a few I haven’t read. Thanks!

    Really enjoyed this! I've enjoyed much of the horror I've read, but for whatever reason, it's a genre I haven't explored very extensively. This gives me some ideas for collections to check out.
    I suspect that the illustrations in those "Scary Stories" volumes traumatized a whole generation of children. 😂 I Am Legend is a terrific novella -- easily one of my favorite vampire stories. And that Book of the Supernatural collection sounds great.
    Thanks for the video, and have a good one!

      Thank you. I have a few more horror collections that I'll be showing in the future. The next shelf is entirely horror as well, but mostly novels.
      I was definitely afraid of the illustrations in Scary Stories when I was young, the one on the cover of my volume and the wolf girl used to freak me out the most, but now I look at them and wish I could draw like Stephen Gammel

    Hey John. Hope you are doing well! If you didn’t know, I do a Saturday Short Story series. Usually do two short stories in a condensed version of my normal book reviews. I need to get the collection of scary stories to tell in the Dark. Loved that as a kid! Cool video!

      Thank you. I'll have to check out your short story series. I'd like to do videos on short stories, but I haven't figured out how to say enough to do them justice without giving away too many spoilers

    Cool lineup thanks for sharing. I recently grabbed that copy of I Am Legend, curious to see how it is.

      Thanks. I'd had a bad experience with Matheson's A Stir of Echoes not long before I read I Am Legend and I was expecting to be disappointed, but these stories surprised me, I really enjoyed them. A Stir of Echoes felt like it was a first draft that had been rushed into print, but I Am Legend felt like it was a finished work, if that makes sense.

    Yea, Cemetery Dance has a website with collections and magazines. Their featured author is Stephen King.
