Description: For a cold chill in the sunshine, here's the ideal collection of horror, stories to sit back and enjoy on a long plane or train journey to your vacation destination, or while relaxing on the beach and around the pool. Such acclaimed writers as Brian Lumley (Greece), Ramsey Campbell (Turkey), Dennis Etchison (Mexico), Tanith Lee (Rome), Christopher Fowler (France), Graham Masterton (Poland), David Sutton (Italy), and many others will take you to foreign lands and exotic cities, where terror and the unknown exist down each secluded alley and around every turn. For unwary travelers, the trip of a lifetime turns into a one-way voyage into their darkest nightmares as they discover that they are strangers in even stranger lands.--From publisher description.
