A NOTE FROM THE PUBLISHER
I was not terribly familiar with the works of Bram Stoker, beyond the “standard” reads for horror fans—Dracula, of course, and The Lair of the White Worm—so I was quite unprepared for how diverse and interesting his body of work actually is. Fairy tales? Mysteries? Humor? This Megapack has them all.
I would particularly like to commit “Old Hoggen: A Mystery” to your attention. This is an exceedingly rare story (I know of only one reprint, and it’s a botched job with typos, mis-transcribed text, and really poor typesetting). I hunted down the newspaper appearance from 1893 and used this text as the basis for this Megapack’s reprint. It’s a mystery story—but also quite fun and occasionally quite gruesome (in an over-the-top sort). You will never look at crabs the same way again!

ABOUT THE MEGAPACKS
Over the last few years, our “Megapack” series of ebook anthologies has grown to be among our most popular endeavors. (Maybe it helps that we sometimes offer them as premiums to our mailing list!) One question we keep getting asked is, “Who’s the editor?”
The Megapacks (except where specifically credited) are a group effort. Everyone at Wildside works on them. This includes John Betancourt (me), Carla Coupe, Steve Coupe, Bonner Menking, Colin Azariah-Kribbs, A.E. Warren, and many of Wildside’s authors…who often suggest stories to include (and not just their own!)
A NOTE FOR KINDLE READERS
The Kindle versions of our Megapacks employ active tables of contents for easy navigation…please look for one before writing reviews on Amazon that complain about the lack! (They are sometimes at the ends of ebooks, depending on your reader.)
RECOMMEND A FAVORITE STORY?
Do you know a great classic science fiction story, or have a favorite author whom you believe is perfect for the Megapack series? We’d love your suggestions! You can post them on our message board at http://movies.ning.com/forum (there is an area for Wildside Press comments).
Note: we only consider stories that have already been professionally published. This is not a market for new works.
TYPOS
Unfortunately, as hard as we try, a few typos do slip through. We update our ebooks periodically, so make sure you have the current version (or download a fresh copy if it’s been sitting in your ebook reader for months.) It may have already been updated.
If you spot a new typo, please let us know. We’ll fix it for everyone. You can email the publisher at [email protected] or use the message boards above.
