But it all started on that dreadful night in a remote farmhouse. . . . Nights of the Living Dead returns to that night, to the outbreak, to where it all began.

Romero, to present a collection of all-new tales set during the forty-eight hours of that legendary outbreak.

Praise for this book
"George Romero is one of my all time heroes-of the films I saw as a young man, the two that had a huge impact on my creative life are Night of the Living Dead and Planet of the Apes. Zombies and Mutations in general lead me down a path directly to where I am today-the Night, Dawn, and Day films I still watch regularly to this day-with the same thrill as the first time I saw them. He has influenced countless 'Creators' in an amazing cross section of genres-he's on my bucket list to meet, shake his hand, and thank him personally for all he's done for me, and my career." -Kevin Eastman, -artist and co-creator of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
"Some projects made on a shoestring budget become classics, and Night of the Living Dead is one of those." -Charlaine Harris, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Sookie Stackhouse novels which became HBO's hit True Blood.
