Twenty-six terrifying tales set on the scariest night of the year by Ramsey Campbell, Neil Gaiman, Joe R. Lansdale, Helen Marshall, Richard Christian Matheson, Robert Shearman, Robert Silverberg, Angela Slatter, Steve Rasnic Tem, and many more. Along with a very special contribution by award-winning poet Jane Yolen.

Treat yourself to some very tricky stories! Halloween . . . All Hallows' Eve . . . Samhain . . . Dia de los Muertos . . . the Day the Dead Come Back . . . When the barriers between the worlds are at their weakest—when ghosts, goblins, and grisly things can cross over into our dimension—then for a single night each year the natural becomes the supernatural, the normal becomes the paranormal, and nobody is safe from their most intimate and terrifying fears.

The Mammoth Book of Halloween Stories brings you a dark feast of frightening fiction by some of the most successful and respected horror writers working today:

Industry Reviews

"[A] wonderful anthology."-Kirkus Reviews

"[The] latest epic anthology . . . edited by the indefatigable Stephen Jones . . . one of the world's most respected and hardest working anthologists. . . . It contains enough spooky tales and timeless treats to be readable at the misty, murky tail-end of any year. . . . A wide range of voices and perspectives are on offer in this one, which . . . enables Steve Jones to tackle the many different aspects of this complex, multi-layered festival, and the varied customs wrapped up in it. . . . These are chilling tales all, showing scare-meister authors at the top of their game. . . . Buy it and read it. It's not the first Halloween anthology, and it certainly won't be the last, but I suspect it'll never have many rivals that can boast such a broad range of story types and Halloween subject-matter." -Paul Finch, author of Shadows, Stolen, and Kiss of Death
