Dark Screams: Volume Two by Robert R. McCammon, Richard Chizmar
3.0
Dark Screams volume 2 features five tales of very different sorts of horror - a little something for everyone. Literally. Here's the full TOC:
Robert R. McCammon: The Deep End
Norman Prentiss: Interval
Shawntelle Madison: If These Walls Could Talk
Graham Masterton: The Night Hider
Richard Christian Matheson: Whatever
As with volume 1, this collection is a mix of new and old - McCammon's tale of underwater terror originally appeared in 1987 and Richard Matheson's odd story of a rock band's rise and fall first appeared in 1997. The remaining three are new to the collection: "Interval" features a demon that feeds on tragedy; "If These Walls Could Talk" forces a TV producer to face down her dark past; and Masterton's tale is woven around a very famous wardrobe.
Like I said, a mix of all sorts of horror. I must admit that McCammon's story is by far my favorite in this particular installment - it would be, I have a serious fear of underwater creepy crawlies!
