So you think you''re impervious to literary chills after sampling our horror gems before bedtime? We''ve heard that before, from folks with tougher spines than you. Many of them ended up going to bed with the lights on. Some made it a point to double-check the door locks before hitting the sack. Some didn¿t even go to bed; they just stayed up all night watching G-rated movies and eating potato chips and bean dip. So if you think you¿re up for it, here¿s a new batch of classic horror gems to snuggle up with in bed. There are some terrific titles. ¿The Black Brain¿ is a Robert Bloch classic. If you like werewolves, Manly Banister¿s ¿Loup-Garou¿ is right up your alley. If you¿re looking for something tamer, try Theodore Sturgeon¿s friendly pussycat in ¿Fluffy.¿ If scary inanimate objects are your thing, then check out Carl Jacobi¿s ¿The Satanic Piano.¿ Allison V. Harding¿s ¿The Damp Man Returns¿ is a chilling sequel to a classic horror tale. Of course if you like monsters that don¿t beat around the bush you`ll love Alex Merriman¿s ¿The Horror in the Attic.¿ ¿The Screaming Shapes¿ by Franklin Gregory is a grade B horror movie just waiting to be made.
