DETAILS: "Mary Shelley's Frankenstein has been described by Stephen King as "the taproot of science fiction" and by Clive Barker as "the greatest horror movie". Certainly the book and the 1931 Boris Karloff film have become a 20th-century cult.

The story of the obsessed scientist's experiments to create life has also been the inspiration for an extensive group of terrifying short stories as well as further movie and television adaptions on the same theme.

This collection brings together the very best from these stories spanning almost 200 years, along with several novelisations of the best of the Frankenstein films, based on the original screenplays. Featured authors include Herman Melville, H.P. Lovecraft, Fritz Lieber, Robert Bloch, Kurt Vonnegut Jnr, Brian Aldiss, and Arthur C. Clark. For Hammer and Universal fans, there are novelisations of The Curse of Frankenstein and The Bride of Frankenstein.
