  1. 1. The Best Of Robert Bloch

    This collection gathers a wide range of darkly imaginative short fiction—chilling psychological horror, eerie supernatural tales, slyly subversive dark comedy, and punchy genre pieces—that showcase tight plotting, memorable twists, and a persistent appetite for the macabre; its compact stories focus on ordinary people driven to desperate or uncanny acts, strange obsessions, and unsettling moral reversals, all rendered with vivid atmosphere and a wry, often unsettling sense of irony.
