About the Book:
It's 1980 and you have three crisp dollar bills in your pocket. You run to the drugstore, or maybe the supermarket, because you know THE RACK will be there, waiting... that black wire rack, tempting you with the latest and best horror paperbacks and their lurid covers.
You spin it slowly, ignoring the grating squeaks that try to warn you of the dangers THE RACK holds. You shiver as you take in the glossy covers: gothic mansions cloaked in fog, bulging eyes on blood-soaked faces, and all the creepy dolls you could ever wish for.
You weigh the possibilities, pondering which nightmare to select, the vengeful vampire, the werewolf, demonic children, or perhaps parasitic insects?
It doesn't matter because THE RACK will beckon to you long after the last page is turned. THE RACK always contains new tales of terror by today's masters of horror. And THE RACK is never done with you...
