The suspenseful, action-packed tales range from visions of a post-apocalyptic world (\"Tight Little Stitches in a Dead Man's Back,\" \"On the Far Side of the Cadillac Desert with Dead Folks\") to alternative histories (\"Trains Not Taken,\" \"Letter from the South, Two Moons West of Nacogdoches\"). A dozen other stories of gruesome violence and utter depravity include \"The Pit,\" in which car trouble develops into a life-or-death struggle; \"Night They Missed the Horror Show,\" involving an encounter with ornery rednecks; and \"Hell Through a Windshield,\" in which a drive-in movie provides a one-way ticket to another dimension.\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBy Bizarre Hands,\u003c\/i\u003e Joe R.
