Classic children's tales take on a touch of the macabre in this twisted retelling of familiar fairytales. Masterful illustrations from Grimly infuse the stories with a murky sinister light that is reflected in the perverse verse. The sweet and familiar childhood rhymes of Wee Willie Winkie, Baa Baa Black Sheep, Mary Had A Little Lamb and Little Boy Blue become sinister stories of menace and cruelty to amuse and terrify.

A sweet little cat drives a man to insanity and murder.... The grim death known as the plague roams a masquerade ball dressed in red.... A dwarf seeks his final revenge on his captors.... A sister calls to her beloved twin from beyond the grave.... Prepare yourself. You are about to enter a world where you will be shocked, terrified, and, though you'll be too scared to admit it at first, secretly thrilled. Here are four tales -- The Black Cat, The Masque of the Red Death, Hop-Frog, and The Fall of the House of Usher -- by the master of the macabre, Edgar Allan Poe. The original tales have been ever so slightly dismembered -- but, of course, Poe understood dismemberment very well. And he would shriek in ghoulish delight at Gris Grimly's gruesomely delectable illustrations that adorn every page. So prepare yourself. And keep the lights on.
