Winner of the 2010 Bram Stoker Award for Best Anthology! Darkly thrilling, these twenty new ghost stories have all the chills and power of traditional ghost stories, but each tale is a unique retelling of an urban legend from the world over. Multiple award-winning editor Ellen Datlow and award-nominated author and editor Nick Mamatas recruited Jeffrey Ford, Ramsey Campbell, Joe R. Lansdale, Caitlin Kiernan, Catherynne M. Valente, Kit Reed, Ekaterina Sedia, and thirteen other fine writers to create stories unlike any they've written before. Tales to make readers shiver with fear, jump at noises in the night, keep the lights on. These twenty nightmares, brought together by two renowned editors of the dark fantastic, are delightful visions sure to send shivers down the spines of horror readers. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

As a New Yorker, I've always been made fun of for being a fervent New Jersey Devils hockey fan. One of my favorite things is that their name is based off the Jersey Devil legend. When a story starts off with "I live along the edge of the Pine Barrens in South Jersey", I can't help but smile!!! ??

vivastory There's a found footage movie (Last Broadcast) that came out shortly before the original Blair Witch that was about this legend. Definitely low budget, but I remember appreciating it for what it was 2y

Enjoying these creepy little reimaginanings of urban legends and ghost stories! They're familiar and new at the same time! Signed by Ellen Datlow not because I was a fan but because she was sitting at a table at ComicCon one year by herself and nobody was talking to her. I felt bad so we started chatting, bought a book and asked her to sign it! 🤣 Lo and behold, she's legendary herself!
