Narrator Tabitha King I didn't listen to the entire thing.
I listened to the first two stories, but the last two are nonfiction, No offense to Mr King, but I'm a fan of his fiction, not his nonfiction,

These aren't two of my favorite stories, These are two stories I could honestly care less about, Tabitha King doesn't have a bad voice, but she has a Maine accent, and as

a Southernor, that RIPS ON MY NERVES like you couldn't believe.
The gentleman who read "Umney's Last Case" wasn't bad, but his voice was rather boring,

This was like eating an apple, Not bad, but not the most exciting thing ever to happen, Wow. . wow . wow .
Such dangerous kids ! ! The House on Maple Street read by Tabitha King I like the stories where the kids get to save the day, so yeah, I liked this one.
I would like to know where Lou ended up though,

Umney's Last Case read by Robert Parker I think this was one I listened to with my original collection of audio cassettes.
I like this idea of escaping into your story, for real, You just have to be careful whose place you take,

Head Down read by Stephen King this is an essay, not a fiction story.
Although I am not a baseball fan, I found this story about King's son's little league team charming

Brooklyn August read by Stephen J Gould a poem.
It was okay.



Great story! I got this book because I'd read Carrie and Thinner long ago and liked them.
But when I get a book in the horror category, I expect to be scared or at least on edge, but none of these stories are scary.
In fact, the story or "essay" about baseball that was published in the New York Times was so boring, I had to skip most of it because I was at risk of falling asleep while driving.
I'd expected at least a few surprises but most of the book was a sleeper, The second story about a private eye was interesting from a writer's perspective since it was about a character come to live, but it, too, was not scary.
I felt generous giving this uneven collection of short "horror" stories and one essay about baseball two.
I particularly liked "Umney's Last Case" and "Head Down, " Both were very well written as expected from Stephen King, ULC was the longest of the stories, and unexpectedly without the horror that typifies King's stories, HD is a true story, and it is apparent once again how much King understands and enjoys baseball.
The collection is short, and these two stories are the standouts, in my opinion, As in sitelinkChattery Teeth, and Other Stories I liked the first story best : It was vivid, creepy and I especially liked the SciFi elements.
The next one didn't fit my taste so much and the nonfiction part of the CD was quite boring in my opinion I'm not so much into sports, or better not so much into talking about/watching sports baseball isn't very famous over here in Germany, so I have to admit that I was quite unfamiliar with the rules.


It was nice to hear Stephen King reading it, though, His wife Tabitha is the narrator of the first story The House on Maple Street and even if it was interesting listening to her, she won't become one of my favorite narrators.
I don't mean this to offend her but somehow it seemed to me as if she had problems with her dentures all the time speaking if she already has dentures Its the audiobook version of a few of Stephen King's short stories from Nightmares and Dreamscapes, which is one of my favorite King books.
Quickly paced science fiction my review is a
, . . good or better
review . Interesting Very interesting. These shorts along with many others were originally anthologized in "Nightmares amp Dreamscapes",
These stories are classic sitelinkStephen King, which is to say they cannot be simply labelled under one genre.
Not even close for Sai King, The reader will go from the nearly pure SciFi work of "The House on Maple Street" to the surreal detective story with a twist in "Umney's Last Case".
The latter brings sitelinkWord Processor of the Gods to mind, With more twists than a bag of pretzels, this one will surely pique the interest of even the jaded reader.
had a few weird essays in it but the stories were classic king, very good! : A mildly entertaining slowburn thriller where abuse runs rampant and earths uncertain guest maybe the saviour Ejot garās pastaigās, savas domas vien apnīk, ar kaut ko jānodarbina prāts.
Izvēlējos izzināt Kinga daiļradi tālāk,

Un kārtējo reizi pārliecinājos, ka viņa romāni man patīk daudz vairāk par stāstiem.
this book is juststories from Nightmares and Dream Scapes, which I already read, This was a reread, but I barely remember reading these stories years ago, I am reminded that I enjoy Stephen King's full length novels better than short stories, as the stories feel incomplete to me.
The House on Maple Street was enjoyable, but I wanted to know more, Stephen King's unparalleled imagination is in full force in this collection of four unabridged short stories originally found in the classic, Nightmares amp Dreamscapes.
Stephen King and an allstar cast of readers bring to life these timeless stories from the darkest places.


Mysterious machinery begins to take over The House on Maple Street, A private detective finds out that he is merely the character in crime novel in Umney's Last Case.
In the nonfiction piece Head Down, King chronicles theseason of his son Owen's little league baseball team and their journey to the Maine State Championships.
And as a companion to Head Down, Brooklyn August takes a nostalgic look back on the glory days of professional baseball.


Stephen King, Tabitha King, Robert Parker, and Stephen J, Gould lend their voices to this haunting collection of classic stories that no Stephen King fan should be without.
Looking at “The House on Maple Street”, it began as a very good tense story about a wife of children re married in an abusive relationship.
The children find metal appearing in the walls, Why That is revealed in time, Where it comes from Not stated, You are glad about the result, but, the ending is very far fetched, .
