Illustrated by Brodie Mack, it contains a mixture of short mystery stories, some few horror tales with titles like "The Blood Drip", "The Hollmsdale Horror" "The Handkerchief" and "The Queer Case of Christine Madrigal", filled out with a few non-fiction fillers like "Shuddersome Folk: Incubi and Hexen"'.
