Massey pulls together a wide range of fretful tales--from monster stories to psychological thrillers. While issues of black identity permeate the stories and certainly enrich this eclectic collection of horror and suspense, Massey's choice to shade the horror and suspense with a particular cultural tint falls flat. Most voices are evenly matched with the narrative, though some listeners may find fault with a few, as is the case with most anthologies. Overall, this production provides a wide spectrum of vocal talent, thereby avoiding the use of too many deep, rhythmic voices, an approach that often serves as a vocal stereotype for black males.
