"One spends one's life trying to help others, but the world is never grateful." - The Invisible Cat

Stories To Be Read With The Doors Locked by Alfred Hitchcock is a collection of 30 short stories and novellas based terror and suspense.

I kind of knew the vibe I was going to get from reading these stories and that's exactly what I got. This anthology included ones which were obviously creepy from the get-go and some which were chilling and made their point in a suspenseful way.

I was familiar with a few authors and some were new to me. The stories although similar in theme spoke greatly through the writing of their authors. A few which stood out for me were:

The Invisible Cat by Betty Ren Wright

A Case For Quiet by William Jeffrey

Royal Jelly by Roald Dahl

Light Verse by Issac Asimov

The Distributer by Richard Matheson

The Leak by Jack Futrelle

Pipe Dream by Alan Dean Foster

These are only a few of the ones which were creepy and encapsulated the theme Alfred Hitchcock was going for in this anthology.

A fun collection worth checking out
