Description: Journey Into Fear and other Great Stories of Horror on the Railways: 50 Tales of Terror by Richard Peyton (1990) Editorial Reviews Book Description A compilation of tales of horror drawn from fact and fiction includes stories of ghostly trains, stations, railway men, and passengers by F. Scott Fitzgerald, Rudyard Kipling, Rod Serling, Ray Bradbury and others. Review: The Ghost Now Standing on Platform One!!! This anthology of railroad hauntings has some good, scary stories in it, some well-known (Charles Dickens' "The Signal-Man") and others that I've never seen in a collection (L.T.C. Rolt's "The Garside Fell Disaster"). The short stories alternate with 'true' hauntings that take place on or near the rails. Some of the real life incidents were even scarier than the story that they introduced. "Journey Into Fear" also includes a smattering of fantasy by Rudyard Kipling (".007"), Ray Bradbury ("The Town Where No One Got Off"), and Robert Bloch ("That Hell-Bound Train"), among others. I didn't care for the Kipling selection, but the Bloch and Bradbury stories were very, very good. Even without a ghost, Bradbury's story is one of the most haunting in the book. This book would make a good present for railroad buffs and ghost-story lovers. It will definitely become a permanent member of my ghost-story collection. The book is in a good used condition. · Please be serious about your bids. Checkout must be completed within 7 days of the close of auction.
