About This Title:
Toybox
by Al Sarrantonio
Open Toybox, and the stories tumble out:
A quiet little girl whose horrible secret bursts forth at a Halloween party.
A doll made of corn that hides a nasty surprise.
The thing that lives under your bed.
Christmas that never ends.
They're all here and more in Toybox: 18 of the best horror stories by
Stoker-nominee Al Sarrantonio. In Toybox meet a man who collects legs
and another who collects monsters. A boy who runs on electricity. There's a
depraved party celebrating the last vampire, a town with one too many rules.
And the ultimate Halloween House. So open Toybox, if you dare: but not
before you oil its hinges, cover your eyes, and turn the lights down low...
Toybox, the first-ever collection by Al Sarrantonio, contains over
80,000 words of fiction, including a brand-new story, "The Big House,"
as well as another new story running throughout the book, a la Ray Bradbury's
The Illustrated Man.
Toybox contains:
"Pumpkin Head"
"The Man With Legs"
"Wish"
"The Spook Man"
"Father Dear"
"Richard's Head"
"Red Eve"
plus eleven other stories!
Introduction by Joe R. Lansdale.
