内容（「BOOK」データベースより）
英米ではホラー・アンソロジーがブームだが、中でも〈ナイトヴィジョン〉シリーズは独自の編纂で知られる。つまり、3人の作家がそれぞれ250枚の中短篇を各巻に書き下ろすことで、一作家一短篇に限られた従来のアンソロジーにつきまとう物たりなさを解消したのである。本巻には、ベストセラー作家ディーン・R・クーンツ、SF界の実力派エドワード・ブライアント、クーンツをしのぐ人気作家ロバート・R・マキャモンの3人を収録する。
From Publishers Weekly
This excellent anthology series showcases the work of three talents in each volume, and this time contains material by a trio of highly regarded fantasy and horror writers. Edward Bryant, who is represented by six stories, has contributed some of his best short work, including a marvelous account of the manager of a nuclear power plant, a man who was also on the Nagasaki bombing run in 1945, haunted by ghosts of the past and possibly the future. Dean R. Koontz has three stories here, including a well-done if overly sentimental tale of a young woman who overcomes a malign alien through will power and love, "Miss Attila the Hun." And Robert R. McCammon's three entries include "The Deep End," about a monster that lives at the bottom of a public swimming pool, and "Best Friends," a knockout of a novelette, grisly and horrific, about a psychotic adolescent and the three demons who have obligingly torn his family into little pieces. Horror fans should find this collection well worth looking into.
