These stories are as creepy as anything that came from the pen of Bram Stoker or Edgar Allan Poe. Vampires, screams in the night, blood on the stairs, head-shrinkers, Chinese tortures, amputations, stakes - they are all here!
Back cover blurb for Not At Night: Tales That Freeze The Blood (Arrow, 1962)
As far as I'm aware, these all went through a few printings and should turn up on ebay & co. every once in a while. The first one is especially good, but I'm not so sure about the third. It's possible that there were later re-issues.
