October Country by Ray Bradbury
Before Ray Bradbury joined the pantheon of cult science fiction writers at 451 degrees Fahrenheit, he also wrote very disturbing stories. October land , as the title suggests, is a collection that is perfect for reading on long autumn evenings, especially on Halloween night. Don’t expect, however, that you will find classic bogeymen on his pages – Bradbury prefers to disturb his readers with the threat of existence. It takes them into its darkest dimensions and shows that even the most ordinary places and things seen from the right perspective can be scary. Have you ever been afraid of your own skeleton? I guarantee that after reading one of the stories, you will think carefully about it! – Maja Mikołajczyk
