A NOTE FROM THE PUBLISHER
The Haunts & Horrors Megapack is a bit of a grab-bag: something for every horror fan, from contemporary to classic ghost stories. As always, when there’s a bit of overlap with other volumes in the Megapack series, we try to include a few extra tales, so there are 31 in this volume instead of the usual 25. (We had trouble limiting our selections to “just” 25!)
If you like a particular author’s work, I urge you to sample some of their other titles, many of which are available from Wildside Press. Find them in your favorite online book or ebook store!

ABOUT THE MEGAPACK SERIES
Over the few years, our “Megapack” series of ebook anthologies has proved to be one of our most popular endeavors. (Maybe it helps that we sometimes offer them as premiums to our email mailing list!) One question we keep getting asked is, “Who’s the editor?”
The Megapacks (except where specifically credited) are a group effort. Everyone at Wildside works on them. This includes John Betancourt, Robert Reginald, Sam Cooper, Carla Coupe, Steve Coupe, Bonner Menking, A.E. Warren, and many of Wildside’s authors…who often suggest stories to include (and not just their own!).
A NOTE FOR KINDLE READERS
The Kindle versions of our Megapacks employ active tables of contents for easy navigation…please look for one before writing reviews on Amazon that complain about the lack! (They are sometimes at the ends of ebooks, depending on your reader.)
RECOMMEND A FAVORITE STORY?
Do you know a great classic science fiction story, or have a favorite author whom you believe is perfect for the Megapack series? We’d love your suggestions! You can post them on our message board at http://movies.ning.com/forum (there is an area for Wildside Press comments).
Note: we only consider stories that have already been professionally published. This is not a market for new works.
TYPOS
Unfortunately, as hard as we try, a few typos do slip through. We update our ebooks periodically, so make sure you have the current version (or download a fresh copy if it’s been sitting in your ebook reader for months.) It may have already been updated.
If you spot a new typo, please let us know. We’ll fix it for everyone. You can email the publisher at [email protected] or use the message boards above.
