Karyn and her husband Roy had come to the peaceful California village of Drago to escape the savagery of the city. On the surface, Drago appeared to be like most small rural towns. But it was not.

O título da coletânea faz alusão a um livro dentro do audiolivro—mais precisamente, a uma peça teatral fictícia—e a seu personagem central, uma figura sobrenatural cuja existência extrapola a narração. A peça O Rei de Amarelo é mencionada em quatro dos contos, mas pouco se conhece de seu conteúdo. É certo apenas que o texto, em dois atos, leva o ouvinte à loucura, condenando sua alma à perdição. Um risco ao qual alguns aceitam se submeter, dado o caráter único da obra, um misto irresistível de beleza e decadência.

Enquanto isso, Richard tenta ao máximo não pensar no menino e volta a atenção para o terreno do outro lado da rua, o qual escava pacientemente, em busca de fragmentos de um carvalho lendário.

Este audiolivro é um tanto quanto diferente. São mais de 70 histórias curtas de terror que vão do sobrenatural até coisas terríveis que os seres humanos podem fazer. E quando eu digo terríveis, quero dizer para ter cuidado antes de realmente ler um título de maldito. Talvez você termine de ouvir essas linhas aterradoras sem confiar em mais ninguém ou quem sabe achando que está sozinho quando na verdade tem alguém invisível perto de você: O livro é maldito. Eu avisei. Aterrorizante. Sinistro. Macabro. Você não vai conseguir parar de ouvir.

"Just room for one inside, sir," isn't quite as bone-chilling as hearing "room for one more, honey" in one of the Twilight Zone's most popular episodes, "Twenty Two." The Rod Serling masterpiece was inspired by E.F. Benson's "The Bus-Conductor". A ghost bears the chilling news instead of a recurring dream in Benson's chiller.
