Synopsis

The most frightening movie ever made is now a novel!
Newsweek calls NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD a "True Horror Classic."
Why does NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD hit with such chilling impact? Is it because everyday people in a commonplace house are suddenly the victims of a monstrous invasion? Or is it because the ghouls who surround the house with grasping claws were once ordinary people, too?
Decide for yourself as you read, and the horror grips you. All the cannibalism, suspense and frenzy of the smash-hit are here in the novel.
This is the ORIGINAL novel by John A. Russo based on the screenplay by John A. Russo and George A. Romero.

I really enjoyed reading this book at the time. I remember looking around the room every few minutes while I was reading this story late at night. What was I like back then but think I ought to read this book again to see if it still has the same effect on me. The film was good too.......more

Goodreads review by Craig on May 01, 2014

Well, this abridged dramatization/audiobook is a good choice to listen to for an eerie hour of after-dark driving. The story is essentially the same as the film with two interesting differences that caught my ear. Anyone who might read this review has surely seen it multiple times, but I'll call spo......more

Goodreads review by Paul on July 26, 2020

I still remember the affect the movie had on me as a teenager back in the sixties. It was good to actually read the book that came out of that movie.
