HORROR SPECIAL: Alley
Strange happenings in normal places.
Every night, a young man hears children playing outside his boarding house-but the alley below his window is fenced off from the world. Then, when a young woman’s family starts acting strangely at the same time she begins having bizarre dreams, she decides to stay with her aunt, but the town she heads for has neither addresses nor roads…also, an all-you-can-eat ice cream bus that ’s more sinister than sweet.
HORROR SPECIAL: Stitches

A tumor shaped like a man’s face slowly moves across a woman’s body. The sea shoots glowing balls into the sky, much to the distress of beachgoers. And a girl dressed up for a holiday has no eyes, no nose, nothing-her face is a total blank.
