Thirteen relentless tales of supernatural suspense, including âIn the Tall Grass,â one of two stories cowritten with Stephen King and the basis for the terrifying feature film from Netflix.
A little door that opens to a world of fairy-tale wonders becomes the blood-drenched stomping ground for a gang of hunters in the dark fantasy tale âFaun.â A grief-stricken librarian climbs behind the wheel of an antique Bookmobile to deliver fresh reads to the dead in âLate Returns.â
In âBy the Silver Water of Lake Champlainâânow an episode on Shudder TVâs Creepshowâtwo young friends stumble on the corpse of a plesiosaur at the waterâs edge, a discovery that forces them to confront the inescapable truth of their own mortality. And in a high-octane thriller, tension shimmers in the sweltering heat of the Nevada desert as a faceless trucker finds himself caught in a sinister dance with a tribe of motorcycle outlaws in âThrottle,â cowritten with Stephen King.
Replete with shocking chillers, including two previously unpublished stories written expressly for this volume (âMumsâ and âLate Returnsâ) and another appearing in print for the first time (âDark Carouselâ), Full Throttle is a darkly imagined odyssey through the complexities of the human psyche. Hypnotic and disquieting, this masterful horror collection mines our tormented secrets, hidden vulnerabilities, and basest fears, and demonstrates this exceptional talent at his very best.
