Devils and Demons
Posted on February 17th, 2010 in Fantastic Titles | No Comments »
Two of the best book titles I’ve come across are of books written by
the horror writer, Dennis Wheatley, and they are
The Devil Rides Out
and
To The Devil A Daughter
Perhaps that’s because I have a kind of fascination for anything to do
with the devil, and the dark side of life. But Dennis Wheatley (or his
publisher) does have a talent for picking great titles of his works,
because here are a few more of them:
Curtain of Fear
Dangerous Inheritance
Desperate Measures
Forbidden Territory
Gateway To Hell
The Island Where Time Stands Still
The Prisoner In The Mask
The Rising Storm
Strange Conflict
Such Power Is Dangerous
Another favourite title of mine is
Night Of The Demon
This is the title of a book by Phil Garland, published in 1972.
In The Heat Of The Night is a mystery story written by John Ball and
first published, I believe, in the 1960s, and was later made into a
film.
How about this for an ominous title?
Hell Is A City
This was written by Maurice Procter and published by the UK’s Mystery
Book Guild in the 1950s. What a title!
