The Eleventh Black Book of Horror — Charles Black

Do you like horror? Do you like to be frightened? '...I suddenly felt a chill go up my back, as though a spider had dropped inside my shirt and was creeping towards my neck.' TWO FIVE SEVEN Or perhaps, revel in sadistic glee? '"As soon as the needle pierces your skin, you'll feel a stinging, then, as the drain cleaner enters your vein, it will start to burn.
