Stories of Darkness and Dread is a collection of stories by American writer
Joseph Payne Brennan. It was released in 1973 and was the author's second collection of stories published by Arkham House. It was published in an edition of 4,138 copies. (The colophon in the book states 4,000; however, the more accurate figure is taken from reference sources). Most of the stories had originally appeared in
Alfred Hitchcock's Mystery Magazine,
Macabre,
Magazine of Horror and other magazines, although several of the tales had appeared in Brennan's earlier collection
Scream at Midnight (1963). [
