In the shadowy confines of an airplane, hurtling through the endless expanse of the sky, lies the setting for the most visceral of fears. "Flight or Fright," curated by the master of horror Stephen King alongside Bev Vincent, is a chilling anthology that explores the primal dread of flying. With each story, the anthology takes you higher into the realm of terror, where every bump and jolt could be a prelude to nightmares untold. This collection, featuring an original introduction and insightful story notes by Stephen King, as well as brand-new contributions from both King and Joe Hill, plumbs the depths of horror that lurk in the seemingly mundane act of air travel. From the anxiety of takeoff to the suspense of mid-air mysteries, each tale is a meticulously crafted journey into fear, making "Flight or Fright" the perfect companion for the uneasy flyer. Not merely content to unsettle with tales of turbulence and technical malfunctions, this anthology delves into the psychological and supernatural. With stories from a roster of legendary writers including Richard Matheson, Ray Bradbury, Roald Dahl, and Dan Simmons, "Flight or Fright" elevates the genre with its blend of classic and contemporary horror. Whether it's the eerie calm of a poem or the stormy descent into madness, the collection promises to captivate with its exploration of the myriad ways a journey through the skies can transform into an excursion into terror. As Stephen King himself suggests, this book is best read with a seatbelt securely fastened, offering a thrilling escape for those brave enough to confront their fear of flying, even if their feet are firmly planted on the ground.
