backA Touch of Terror


The titles chosen for this sampler are linked by varying degrees of terror - but that is where the similarity ends. What you won't get is ten extracts full of blood and gore - in saying that, there's plenty that's unsettling, scary - downright frightening - but there's also something subtle on offer too.

Although all the samplers take the same theme, titles on the lists may vary according to what is available in each format.
