"Gruesome Triad: Three Stories of the Macabre" gives you plenty of reasons to make sure the night light is on before you go to bed. "The Plague" How do we go from two plague survivors playing an innocent game of "Go Fish" at the beginning of the evening to a roasting pan full of human blood the next morning? "Matters of Faith" What evil and unholy secret is Faith Breatnach McCollister keeping in the locked room in her cabin on Manitou Lake? "The Sand Phantom" When a quicksand pit in the tall saw grass of Vietnam swallows a combat helicopter and the men within it, what horrors are to be found when an attempt is made to find the bodies? The stories inside this anthology will curdle anyone's blood. But even more disturbing, as much as these are tales of morality as well as a horror stories, there may be no redemption for any of the characters involved no matter how nice and morally driven some of them seem.
