  The classic vampire story by Bram Stoker revolves around a struggle between good and evil, tradition and modernity, and lust versus chastity. The author didn’t invent vampires, but his novel has so captured the public’s imagination that he is rightly considered their popularizer. Listen and you will meet not only the Count himself, but heroes Jonathan Harker and Abraham Van Helsing, plus an array of madmen, psychiatrists, and fair maidens who cross paths with the fanged menace. (Summary by Paula)

  25 authors, 25 classic stories, to celebrate the night of the dead. 
   
  All Saints day: All Hallows Day: Halloween.  Children dress up and go trick or treating but those of us who have given up on these childish things still have the urge to be frightened.  
   
  Fear comes with these tales.  Some are peopled with ghouls and phantoms who rise to walk the earth – some feature men and women of wanton evil, of dark thoughts and darker deeds but some are just like you and me, whose innocence does not escape their blood curdling terror, and whose circumstance does not mitigate their horrifying fate. 
   
  From the oh so normal every day to the supernatural happenings of other times, other dimensions.  
   
  Amongst our purveyors of deceit, dread and death are Lovecraft, Poe, Stoker, M R James, Saki, Edith Nesbit, Mary Shelley, Blackwood, Dickens who use their rabid pens of painful words to wound our senses in varied, un-ending and mysterious ways.  
   
  Their stories may be plausible; a guest given shelter, a friend in need but know this - their currency is fear and their motive might be dark, grotesque and dangerous.  
   
  Their target? Well, that’s rather obvious now. Isn’t it?

  THE LARK: Danny is a struggling singer willing to do almost anything to get a little exposure and keep food on the table, so she doesn't think twice about traveling to the middle of nowhere to perform a gig. When she's stranded at an abandoned airport, however, she finds herself exposed to a sinister creature with a hunger for something only she can provide. 
  HEAVEN'S GUN: Jacob is a small-time criminal who dabbles in everything from drugs to prostitutes to illegal weapons. When he finds a gun that seems to be of supernatural origin, he begins to dream of the big time. His dream turns into a nightmare when he realizes someone wants their toy back. 
  FOOLKILLERS: When lonely middle manager Avery Brocus set up a profile on an adult hook-up site, he never dreamed a young hottie would contact him, let alone insist on meeting in person. Agreeing too quickly, he expects to be robbed of his money or identity. He soon realizes he’s been caught up in a plot for something far more valuable. 
  KNOTTY & ICE: Even though he’s one of the Heartland Security Agency’s Peacemaker agents, a man sworn to help protect and preserve the morality of the United States, Neal can’t give up his habit of patronizing prostitutes. When one of them steals the prototype of a top secret device, however, he has no choice but to come clean in order to rally fellow agents for a recovery mission. His situation goes from bad to worse when he is tricked into a plot to take down one of the Agency’s most powerful secret allies—an angel from Heaven&Hell. 
  ROGUE BEAUTY: A fugitive from the Sprytes, one of the most dangerous supernatural cults on Earth, Betty has refashioned herself as a revealer of dark conspiracies and a killer of misogynous conspirators. On her crusade, she has successfully stayed off the radar for months. When the Sprytes close in, however, Betty may find herself entangled in a conspiracy too dark to escape.
