Cemetery Dance Select: Rick Hautala

The Cemetery Dance Select series spotlights some of our favorite authors with a sampling of their short fiction: award-winners, stories readers consider their best, or ones that had a significant impact on their career—or neglected favorites that deserve a second look.

Long-time fans will enjoy revisiting some classic tales. New readers will find this series a handy introduction to each author’s best work.

Each Cemetery Dance Select mini-collection includes an exclusive Afterword that explains the reasoning behind each selection, and provides insights into the writing of each story. Although Rick Hautala passed away in 2013, his wife Holly Newstein Hautala selected the stories and provided the Afterword for this collection.

The stories included are:

Deal with the Devils

Tin Can Telephone

Nightmare Transcript

Cold River (full-length novella)
