  • Five satanic tales from the Grand Master of Macabre. In this volume: Meaningful Dialogue:  A husband murders his wife - only to discover the hideous truth about her past.  Evil Star: Written in the form of a letter, a man is determined to get his manuscript published. Rational Moments: A music connoisseur's unearthly passion leads him to the brink of primeval chaos; The Wine Of Life: A lawyer, fed up with corruption, plaintiffs, telephones and all the rest of his world, drives away and into an adventure when he picks up a pretty young hitchhiker... Dorian Black: A promising student pays a demonic price for success (written as a screenplay.)
  • A chilling collection of tales: A Russian composer makes a Faustian pact at his friend's expense; a lecherous old man exacts a very hideous revenge on his nubile young wife and her lover; a sinister musical time machine reveals a ghastly atrocity from the dark abyss of time...just a few of the horrors that await the reader.
  • This volume contains three of Russell's best-known horror tales: Sanguinarius: Count Ferencz Nadasdy - Charming, handsome, irresistible...and depraved beyond redemption as he indulges in fiendish rites. Sardonicus: The hideously afflicted master of a remote, dungeon-dark castle. Sagittarius: Laval - a monstrous actor in plays of torture and death, plays that become terrifyingly real...
