Two classic tales of diverse terror that could only come from the master of modern horror and suspense.
'CARRIE'.To be invited to the Prom Night by Tommy Ross is a dream come true for Carrie White - the first step towards social acceptance by her high school colleagues.
But events will take a decidedly macabre turn on that horrifying and endless night as she is forced to excercise her terrible gift on the town that mocks and loathes her. . .
'THE TOMMYKNOCKERS'.Coming back to Haven, Maine,had been like walking into a nightmare for Jim.It all looked the same, the house,the furniture,the woods.But it was in the woods that his friend Bobbi had stumbled over the odd,nearly buried object, had felt a peculiar tingle as she knelt down and brushed the soft earth away.
And looking back,that had been the start of a terrible,terrifying transformation of an unremarkable place into something alien and hideous.A place of unrest and insane powers.
