Eh... not really interested in those kinds of books. Just doesn't seem I would be interested enough in the first place to give them a chance.

For good short horror, Clive Barker's Books of Blood are great.
So is Stephen King's Night Shift, Skeleton Crew, Four Past Midnight, and Nightmares and Dreamscapes. I don't have cable so I haven't seen the miniseries, but I know the book has GREAT stories in it.
Last and least, Dean Koontz's Strange Highways. I liked it enough to recommend, but not enough to gush.

I really enjoy the N&D miniseries. A friend records them and sends them to me over an FTP due to me not getting TNT in Canada. I watched the first two, and while the first episode about attack toy soldiers didn't get my interest, the story about Coutch End is something I really enjoyed for it's sheer bizzareness.

The story Crouch End in the book is about places in the world where the fabric separating us from other dimensions has worn thin, and there are a lot of references to H.P Lovecraft....was the miniseries the same?

ok, so I won't reccomend Stoker's -------, too obvious, but check out "the Black Company" by Glenn Cook from Tor books, then go crasy and start up your own website in honor of the series. It's like the lord of the rings for jaded adults. No fairytale crap here,
it's written like a modern war journal, only set back in the days. gritty as hell with just a slight touch of fantasy. think Tom Clancy meets Tolkien. DEFINITELY NOT FOR KIDS.

Pretty much. It was a good episode for the utter weirdness if nothing else.
