Description
"For fans of classic horror, and for readers of Stephen King, Joe Hill, and Peter Straub's other titles...What was the worst thing you've ever done? In the sleepy town of Milburn, New York, four old men gather to tell each other stories--some true, some made-up, all of them frightening. A simple pastime to divert themselves from their quiet lives. But one story is coming back to haunt them and their small town. A tale of something they did long ago. A wicked mistake. A horrifying accident. And they are about to learn that no one can bury the past forever... #1 New York Times bestselling author Peter Straub's classic tale of horror, secrets, and the dangerous ghosts of the past..."The terror just mounts and mounts." --Stephen King "The scariest book I've ever read...It crawls under your skin and into your dreams." --Chicago Sun-Times "Not since Edgar Allan Poe has an author taken such liberties with his readers' nerves...A masterwork of horror." --Cosmopolitan"--
