Screams from the Dark

29 Tales of Monsters and the Monstrous

By: Ellen Datlow

Narrated by: Tim Campbell, Billie Fulford-Brown, Rachel L. Jacobs, Shannon McManus, Adenrele Ojo, Kaipo Schwab, Neil Shah, Eunice Wong

A bone-chilling anthology from legendary horror editor Ellen Datlow, Screams from the Dark contains twenty-nine all-original tales about monsters.

From werewolves and vampires, to demons and aliens, the monster is one of the most recognizable figures in horror. But what makes something, or someone, monstrous?

Award-winning and up-and-coming authors like Richard Kadrey, Cassandra Khaw, Indrapramit Das, Priya Sharma, and more attempt to answer this question. These all-new stories range from traditional to modern, from mainstream to literary, from familiar monsters to the unknown . . . and unimaginable.

This chilling collection has something to please—and terrify—everyone, so lock your doors, hide under your covers, and try not to scream.

Inclusion of odd stories that were not necessarily horror.

I did not like stories that were introspective, self-analysis without real horror. They belong in another anthology.

horrid

it is a sub par collection of passably mediocre stories unworthy of datlows previous work

Meh

I skipped through quite a few stories. It’s good background noise but not much else. Narrators we’re fine, the stories were boring.

Total enjoyment

Almost every story had me completely enthralled. Im an avid horror fan movies anthologies from Alfred Hitchcock and tales from the darkside since I was 7 yrs old this was a random listen and I was so happy it was so good

Skip this one..

Horrible stories. Many do not even have closure. Does not match its description. Nothing scary here.
Just plain weird!
