Summary
 Hold tight. We are going into a number of dark places, but I think I know the way. Just don't let go of my arm . . .

Unrivalled master of suspense Stephen King takes the unsuspecting reader on a fantastic journey through the dark shadows of our innermost fears.

Do the dead sing?

In this bumper collection of chilling tales, which includes the brilliant story adapted into the acclaimed movie The Mist, we meet: a woman who has never crossed The Reach, the water dividing her from the mainland; a gramma who only wants to hug little George, even after she is dead; an innocent looking toy with sinister powers; and a primeval sea creture with an insatiable appetite.

Narrated by Stephen King, Matthew Broderick, Michael C. Hall, Paul Giamatti, Will Patton, Norbert Leo Butz, Lois Smith, Dylan Baker, Kyle Beltran, Dana Ivey, Robert Petkoff, David Morse, and Frances Sternhagen.

As mentioned in other reviews, the sound was very annoying. Whispers then shouting meant volume up and down during many of the stories. Other than that very good.

Bad sound

Loved it. The narrators all did a brilliant job though Mr King not so much. His talent definitely lies in the writing of the tale but I did still enjoy his narration.

I didn't finish all the stories because either they were too boring or I just couldn't connect with them. Many others were awesome....!

did not finish some stories, others were great!
