A variety of short stories, each one ending horrifyingly.
I was almost dreading how a somewhat innocent take on day-to-day events or things could be turned into something scary.
And I'm actually talking about very basic things. Imagine the following to become the stuff of nightmares:
A Tv-set
Adult tantrums
A speeding ticket (maybe if you've read some King novels, you would've seen this one coming)
Crickets
Just to name a few.
The most famous story is of course the title of the collection. It has been televised during The Twilight Zone and referenced to in many TV-shows, about seeing things no one else is seeing.
I enjoyed it, nothing more. It's difficult to get a sense of the story when it is over so quickly (the reason I believe my road to hell would be paved with short stories).
But it you're into classic horror with a nice twist, you'll like this collection. Matheson has a way of finding horror in just about everything.
