Graham Masterton Collection

Three nightmare-inducing classics of contemporary horror from the award-winning "master of the genre" (Rocky Mountain News). As "the living inheritor of the realm of Edgar Allan Poe," Graham Masterton takes his place alongside Stephen King and Peter Straub in the canon of contemporary horror authors. Here are three of his most memorable novels, all steeped in supernatural shocks, Lovecraftian creepiness, and Masterton's own boldly original vision (San Francisco Chronicle). The Manitou: A tumor growing on the back of a young woman's neck is in fact a vengeful spirit attempting to reenter the world. This acclaimed debut novel was adapted into a film starring Tony Curtis, Susan Strasberg, and Burgess Meredith. "A chilling tale." -Kirkus Reviews Charnel House: In this Edgar Award Finalist, a house in San Francisco is possessed by an ancient demon with an insatiable hunger for blood. As it threatens to escape from its prison, the hapless homeowner, a civil servant, and a Native American shaman are the only ones who can stop it. "[A] horror stalwart... Masterton is capable of conjuring a spooky atmosphere and evoking chills from understated terrors." -Publishers Weekly The Hymn: In this masterwork of supernatural suspense, a man haunted by his fiancée's suicide investigates a mysterious rash of sacrificial deaths in California and descends into a nightmare world of paranormal cults and Nazi terror. Originally published as The Burning.

Two chillingly ingenious horror novels from the award-winning author of The Manitou. Graham Masterton, alongside such luminaries as Stephen King and Peter Straub. Here are two of Masterton's most strikingly original novels, where the horrors of history wreak demonic evil on the present day. The Devil in Gray: In Richmond, Virginia, a bizarre and brutal serial killer is somehow entering locked rooms, mutilating victims, and disappearing without a trace-and a homicide detective's sanity is tested as he tracks a murderer beyond the human capacity for evil. The Devils of D-Day: In a French village, an American surveyor discovers an abandoned Nazi tank. When he unseals its hatch, a demonic force is released into the world and a new global war threatens to drag mankind to the gates of hell.
