“One spends one’s life trying to help others, but the world is never grateful.” - The Invisible Cat
Stories To Be Read With The Doors Locked by Alfred Hitchcock is a collection of 30 short stories and novellas based terror and suspense.
I kind of knew the vibe I was going to get from reading these stories and that’s exactly what I got. This anthology included ones which were obviously creepy from the get-go and some which were chilling and made their point in a suspenseful way.
I was familiar with a few authors and some were new to me. The stories although similar in theme spoke greatly through the writing of their authors. A few which stood out for me were:
The Invisible Cat by Betty Ren Wright
A Case For Quiet by William Jeffrey
Royal Jelly by Roald Dahl
Light Verse by Issac Asimov
The Distributer by Richard Matheson
The Leak by Jack Futrelle
Pipe Dream by Alan Dean Foster
These are only a few of the ones which were creepy and encapsulated the theme Alfred Hitchcock was going for in this anthology.
A fun collection worth checking out

These were definitely not as scary as I expected them to be, most of the stories were decent though
