Once again, the spine tingling sensibility of America's favorite fantasy tv show electrifies a collection of tales guaranteed to leave readers with that strange feeling of having been to a distant, but familiar place, a place like our world, but strangely, subtly different. Edited by Rod Serling's wife Carol Serling, this collection is the newest in a series begun with "The Twilight Zone: The Original Stories--" a series of story anthologies dedicated to capturing the unique Zone atmosphere on the printed page, which in many cases is where it began. "Return to the Twilight Zone" includes 19 stories by a wide range of today's best mystery, sci-fi and fantasy authors. Carol Serling has called on many of today's hottest writers--including Pamela Sargent, Robert Weinberg, Barry Longyear, Charles Grant, and Jack Dann--to create the kind of imagination-grabbing stories with that unique twist which is the special trademark of "The Twilight Zone." Here, for your careful consideration, are unforgettable new excursions into that mysterious dimension beyond our own.

When it first aired in 1959, The Twilight Zone was nothing less than groundbreaking television. Freed from the censors' strict oversight due to the show's classification as science fiction, the 156 episodes explored classic, powerful, and moving human themes—love, hate, pride, jealousy, terror—in a unique style. The program sparked the imaginations of countless writers and filmmakers around the world. With More Stories from the Twilight Zone, some of today's finest writers have written all-new stories celebrating the unique vision and power of Rod Serling's landmark series. The previous anthology boasted a stellar group including New York Times bestselling authors Whitley Strieber, R. L. Stine, and Laura Lippman, and writers who wrote scripts for the original Twilight Zone and its later incarnations, such as Earl Hamner and Alan Brennert. So as Rod Serling said, "...prepare to enter that fifth dimension, beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition. And it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call...The Twilight Zone." At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

“You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension—a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind.” There are a lot of compendiums on The Twilight Zone out there, most offering a backstage peek at the ins and outs of producing this seminal genre series. The Binge Watcher’s Guide to The Twilight Zone will offer you something these other books do not: a microscopic look into the themes and ideas that Rod Serling weaved into his landmark show to give you a deeper understanding of why The Twilight Zone still resonates with audiences over 60 years later. This guide will examine how the socio-political turmoil of the early 1960s, the global anxiety over nuclear power, and the looming specter of trauma in post-war America influenced Serling to use The Twilight Zone as a bully pulpit, pushing back against social ills, from racism and censorship to McCarthyism and totalitarianism. Whether this is your first trip to the Zone or you’re an old fan returning for one more round, this retrospective is an opportunity to engage with the timeless classic in a way that can help you make sense of our here and now. “You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You've just crossed over into the Twilight Zone.”
