Die vierte Anthologie aus dem Hause DreamLand Productions: Diesmal erleben wir in einer Geschichte von H. P. Lovecraft, wie ein Mann einem unsagbaren Grauen begegnet, in Mark Twains Geschichte erleben wir einen Menschen, der ohne dafür bezahlt zu werden keinen Finger rührt, was sich bitter rächen soll, und in der dritten Geschichte aus der Feder von A. F. Morland erleben wir einen Taxifahrer der besonderen Art, der zeigt, dass, wenn man persönlich betroffen ist, Gefühle nicht einfach ausschalten kann.

But loss can, after mourning, give the opportunity to reappraise the lost and how we can each move forward. In the literary world an accessible balance can be given.

Naturally the stories come in all shapes and sizes and in the pens of our classic authors the scientists more usually arrive as dark, twisted and evil as they go about their work illuminating humanity as only a mad scientist can.
