The book opens with a short introductory essay purportedly by Alfred Hitchcock and each story is introduced in a short eerie blurb also supposedly by Hitchcock. And so we feel as if the great man himself is leading us through this collection of stories he has perhaps picked especially for us. It is quite a varied collection with some masters of the short story mixed with some unknowns. A couple of real gems are mixed in here with the OK and a couple of duds, but overall a decent enough satisfying collection of eerie tales of murder, mayhem and perhaps something not quite of this world.--Nicola Mansfield, Goodreads member

Work Description
Most (but certainly not all) of the stories involve some type of love triangle in which someone is murdered. Although the killer attempts to plan the perfect crime, it often does not end up that way. Some stories were rather disturbing, but if that is the kind of thing you like, I recommend these stories. If murder makes you squeamish, I recommend that you read something else like Tommy's Fun Day at the Beach, or Little Susie Gets a Bunny.--Van Reese Goodreads
