1963 Scholastic's Stories of Suspense


I got this today (5 January 2007) at the used book store on the $2 rack. It has these interesting stories:
The Birds, Daphne du Maurier (1952) originally in Kiss Me Again, Stranger
Of Missing Persons, Jack Finney (1955/1956) originally in The Third Level
Midnight Blue, John Collier (1956) originally in The New Yorker
Flowers for Algernon, Daniel Keyes (1959) originally in The Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction - one of my favorite stories of all times, and so poignant.
Taste, Roald Dahl (1951) originally in Someone Like You
Two Bottles of Relish, Lord Dunsany (1936) by Story Magazine
Charles, Shirley Jackson (1948/1949) originally in The Lottery
Contents of the Dead Man's Pockets, Jack Finney (1955/1956) originally in The Third Level
The Perfectionist, Margaret St. Clair (1946)
Stories of Suspense, unknown editor, illustrated by Irv Docktor, 1963, 3rd printing, Scholastic, T487

About Me

My Photo
Besides being a Lovecraftian, I'm a writer with numerous publications of short stories, poems, and essays: Down in The Cellar, The Open Vein, +Horror Library+ Vol. 1, Horror Mall, Blood Moon Rising, Dark Recesses, and more. I'm an associate editor at Miskatonic Books where I blog. A long time member of Horror Library's T-12 (now defunct) where over 120,000 readers enjoyed my stories. My HPL blog has garnered notoriety since 2006, has nearly 3000 posts on HPL facts - many not found elsewhere, and has accumulated over 215,000 reads. I have written an unpublished biography on Lin Carter, and currently writing a biography of Lovecraft's grandfather.
