The Barnes & Noble Review July 2000 Horror Master Peter Straub doesn't write a great deal of short fiction, but he makes every story count. Magic Terror, his first collection since the memorably twisted Houses Without Doors, contains seven stories previously published in assorted anthologies. Most of these stories are novellas (Straub's preferred format), and at their frequent best they are elegantly composed, deeply disturbing reflections on the beauty and terror of the world. Two of the entries are directly connected to Straub's Stoker Award-winning novel,The Throat. "The Ghost Village" recasts one of the central incidents from that novel: Tim Underhill's visit to the haunted village of Bong To, where he encounters the spirit of a murdered Vietnamese child, along with the ghosts of two recently deceased platoon mates.

The story centers on key moments in Fee's spiritual and psychological disintegration: his mother's death at the hands of his drunken, murderous father and his own seduction by a local child molester named Heinz Stenmitz. "Bunny Is Good.
