Synopsis Joe Hill is a master of the short story. And like his literary forbearer Edgar Allen Poe (and sometimes like his famous father, Stephen King), Hill focuses his concise energies on tales that unnerve, reorient, surprise, and creep out. Each of the 15 stories in 20TH CENTURY GHOST has its own focus, its own emotional charge, and its own curious hero--a towering locust, a recovering superhero, an inflatable kid, a movie-buff ghost who haunts an old theater. Not your run-of-the-mill genre fiction writer, Hill is a creative literary artist with the skills to scare the you-know-what out of his readers.
