About this listen

The thrill-a-minute stories the writers of the original movie, The Mummy, with Boris Karloff, and its many sequels and remakes, used for research. Fans of those films will find the origins of: the scene in which the sacred formula for eternal life is secreted in the base of a statue of Isis; as well as the scenes in which mummies are brought back to life by burning a rare Egyptian herb; where a modern woman, who is the reincarnation of an ancient Egyptian princess, begins to turn into a mummy herself; where mummies can only be truly destroyed by fire; and many others. Your blood will run cold at such exciting tales as "In the Valley of the Sorceress" by Sax Rohmer, "The Mummy's Foot" by Theophile Gautier, "The Nameless Mummy" by Arlton Eadie, "The Mummy of Thompson-Pratt" by C.J. Cutcliffe Hyne, "Monkeys" by E. F. Benson, and two unabridged short novels, Lot No. 249 by Arthur Conan Doyle and The Curse of Amen-Ra by Victor Rousseau. This anthology is a must-listen for everyone who has ever loved their mummy. Includes an introduction by editor Jean Marie Stine.

The Mummies Return review

A fantastic, interesting collection of seven chilling tales involving mummies and Egypt's undead. Worthwhile and had good narration.

Mummies!

This was an enjoyable collection of tales about Egyptian mummies. Some were downright spooky, some were informative, and one was fairly humorous. The stories ranged from Victorian times to present day authors. If you enjoy the classic movies based on mummy tales, you will enjoy this book.

The narrator did a great job and added a lot to the book. I received a copy of the audiobook version of this book through the publisher and chose to review it.

I want my mummy, er, mummies

Imhotep, as played by Boris Karloff was my first ever introduction to the horror of the mummies. I thought it was just brilliant and I have been a fan of the universal monsters since I was a kid along time ago.

This book restores those days of nostalgia for me, by bringing back the wrapped up dead, this anthology collects numerous and excellent stories of the Egyptian terrors.

The narration is excellent and you could not ask for more. It definitely sets the tone of each story, no matter how different they are.

If you are in Egyptophile or just a lover of mommies in general then this is a really the book you have been looking for. There are a multitude of different takes on mummies. So not only as there’s something for everyone but there’s a lot of things just for you in these stories.

Well written and narrated

I really like how the author wrote this book. The characters were very witty and the narration was really good with just the right amount of suspense.
