description: Which do you find the most horrible? '...a nauseous stench was in his nostrils. The great spider gave a sibilant rattle and then it was on his mouth covering his face and eyes with its sticky bloated carcass.''We three sat and watched that hideous gibbering prodigy grow up out of Stone's flesh till two horrid spindling little black arms disengaged themselves.''The severed head lay in the dog's basket fluff sticking to the lips sightless eyes gazing up at the ceiling.'...three aperitifs from this new collection of Horror Stories to whet your appetite!
