Famed for his deft delineations of beautiful, scheming women, handsome
jealous husbands, and not-so-innocent children, Kamen returns with a
collection of classic EC horror tales from The Vault of Horror, Tales
From the Crypt, and The Haunt of Fear. In the title tale, a cruel
stepfather sends his stepdaughter to bed without her supper, but the old
crone next door gives the hungry girl a candy figure made in the
likeness of her father ... In "What the Dog Dragged In" -- one of the
EC's earliest adaptations of a Ray Bradbury story -- a wheelchair-bound
blind woman asks her faithful dog to go find her fiancé, unaware that he
had been killed in an auto accident... In "Loved to Death," a rejected
suitor spends one dollar to buy a potion that makes a woman fall in love
with him, but when it works too well he discovers the price of the
antidote is more than he can afford ... Plus over 20 more tales of
madness and horror as only EC can do them!
