He's coming. From across the galaxy, he's coming. In a future where government is virtually galaxy wide and dominated by the Bureaus, an emergency team, responding to a beacon from an outpost in another sector of the known, makes a grisly discovery: All five hundred people on board the station have been killed. And it looks like they were tortured to death. An Unclassified has escaped and is on the rampage again. This time it will end a galaxy away with one man and his family. This time for revenge.

Evil has come. Evil came behind him. Where did he come from? No one knew. Why was he here? They didn't know. They only knew that the dead don't come back to life, that people don't fly and that there are no creatures from the edge of the Void... At least not until he came to town. Julie Anderson was mayor of Thebes, Ohio, a town hard hit by the recession. Because of budget cuts, to make ends meet herself, she posts a notice to rent a room. The room is taken by a stranger come to town. He's tall, has blue eyes, an interesting face but he smiles too much. And then strange things begin to...

Lights moving among the dead. The dead come to life. Whispering voices in the shadows and in the dark. The sun is setting; the night will be dark. Things hatched in the shadows come out to possess it. Fear treads heavily, fear of the unseen and what moves in the shadows. What will dash out from the corners? What is there in the recesses I cannot see, behind me, to the side, in front? Is it real or is it imagined? These are stories of the fear that stalks us in the night time. These are tales from the dark. This is the first book in the From the Dark series. These stories originally appeared...

The sun has set. Darkness settles in. There is quiet. Nothing stirs, at least not yet. All is quiet; all is peaceful. But then a shriek and something moves in the shadows. And a sound... Of chopping, chopping, chopping in the woods. Then a woman in white on a lone road. A cry from below ground. A phone call from beyond. The stranger in the shadows. These are tales from the dark. This is the second book of the From the Dark series. These stories originally appeared in the series Tales for a Dark Night.

Night is coming on and things gather past the edge of the light in the blackness beyond, unseen, unseeable. A groan, a sigh, a resignation to the pain, the anguish, the terror. A shadow moves. What is that? It is coming. From out of the blackness it is coming. A woman and man come upon a man with an appalling appendage. A man with tickets to a train that shouldn't exist. A student desperate for money gets more than he bargains for. A mummy and the ship that was unsinkable. These are tales from the dark. This is the third book in the From the Dark series. These stories originally appeared in...

Hard comes in the night. It moves in thick, deep and deepening. The darkness seeps in, down in, to the very center, the very core. Things stir in the shadows, dark things, secret things, things that do not live in the light. They linger watching from the shadows and lick their lips waiting for the light to vanish. Then they will be free. Then they will come. Voices beckon from the darkness. A box carries Armageddon. A hangman at the end of his rope. A message from beyond the grave. The laughter of disembodied children. A sinister smile. These are tales from the dark. This is the fourth book...
