Danse Macabre

Danse Macabre

by StephenKing (Author)

Synopsis

Ranging across the whole spectrum of horror in popular culture from the seminal classics of "Count Dracula" and "Frankenstein", Stephen King describes his ideas on how horror works on many levels and how he brings it to bear on his own inimitable novels. Told in the chatty, intelligent style of the course for which this was originally devised, this is a charming book replete with pertinent anecdote and observation.
