"A special collector's edition with a new introduction by the author"--Cover.
v. 1. The book of blood. The midnight meat train. The yattering and Jack. Pig blood blues. Sex, death, and starshine. In the hills, the cities -- v. 2. Dread. Hell's event. Jacqueline Ess, her will and testament. The skins of the fathers. New murders in the Rue Morgue -- v. 3. Son of Celluloid. Rawhead Rex. Confessions of a (pornographer's) shroud. Scape-goats. Human remains.
From a power-invested ancient Roman statue that steals souls to long-dead movie stars resurrected to serve the forces of evil, these three collections of short stories combine the extraordinary with the ordinary, to create a nightmarish world of terror and the macabre.
