One more, since nobody asked. Here are 13 outstanding horror short stories that are worth your while to seek out. The only criteria I had for this list was that none of the authors on my novels list could appear, which meant I had to exclude stories like George R. R. Martin’s “The Monkey Treatment,” Lansdale’s “Night They Missed the Horror Show,” Richard Matheson’s “The Distributor,” Shirley Jacksons The Summer People, and a host of others. 1. “Dread” by Clive Barker 2. “Miss Gentibelle” by Charles Beaumont 3. “Calcutta, Lord of Nerves” by Poppy Z. Brite 4. “A Sad Last Love at the Diner of the Damned” by Edward Bryant 5. “Bloodchild” by Octavia E. Butler 6. “Touring” by Jack Dann, Gardner Dozois, and Michael Swanwick 7. “Faith of Our Fathers” by Philip K. Dick 8. “It Only Comes Out at Night” by Dennis Etchison 9. “Men Without Bones” by Gerald Kersh 10. “Children of the Kingdom” by T. E. D. Klein 11. “The Autopsy” by Michael Shea 12. “The Man Who Drew Cats” by Michael Marshall Smith 13. “Less Than Zombie” by Douglas E. Winter
