About this listen
Deck the halls with boughs of zombies! In his original short story, Christmas with the Dead, acclaimed author Joe R. Lansdale delivers a holly-jolly horror story like no other.
Meet Calvin, a man determined to bring the Christmas spirit back to his zombie-infested town, even if it means risking life and limb to hang up those Christmas lights.
This festive compilation includes the original short story, the screenplay adaptation by Keith Lansdale that brought the nightmare to life on screen, and a foreword by the film's director T.L. Lankford which provides an inside look at how this yuletide terror came to life—filmed under the blazing Texas sun, no less.
Christmas with the Dead is a must-have for fans of Joe R. Lansdale's sardonic universe, and anyone who enjoys a blend of suspense, humor, and holiday cheer—served with a merry side of zombie mayhem.

Story
Gather round as today’s most diabolically clever authors twist simple moments into otherworldly horrors. An empty baby stroller. A scratching underneath the bed. A farmhouse in the moonlight. With an unnerving sense of the macabre, these stories transform our greatest fears into bone-chilling realities.

Story
When Bill and his friends accidentally witness a homicide by two hitmen known only as Fat Boy and Cobra Man, everyone but Bill is slaughtered. After escaping by the skin of his teeth, Bill runs to his Uncle Hank, who reluctantly gets involved, and together, they begin a clandestine takedown of Fat Boy and Cobra Man that leads them to something much darker, much more unspeakable than simple murder or revenge. Waltz of Shadows, a novel not for the feint of heart, is Lansdale at his darkest.

Story
Charlie Garner has a bad feeling. His ex-wife, Meg, has been missing for over a week and one quick peek into her home shows all her possessions packed up in boxes. Neighbors claim she’s running from bill collectors, but Charlie suspects something more sinister is afoot. Meg was last seen working at the local donut shop, a business run by a shadow group most refer to as ‘The Saucer People’; a space-age, evangelist cult who believe their compound to be the site of an extraterrestrial Second Coming.

Story
Equipped with the entirety of human knowledge, a sentient ship is launched on a last-ditch journey to find a new home for civilization. Trillions of miles. Tens of thousands of years. In the space between, the AI has plenty of time to think about life, the vastness of the universe, everything it was meant to do, and—with a perspective created but not limited by humans—what it should do.
