Review

Buckle up: “Flight or Fright” takes horror off solid ground and sends it screaming skyward – sometimes literally! This anthology isn’t just a clever concept; it’s masterfully executed thanks in large part to its exceptional full-cast performance. Right from takeoff, the variety of narrators pulls listeners into every story as if each tale were being whispered by someone sitting in the seat beside you – or lurking behind you at thirty thousand feet.

Stephen King himself opens proceedings with his familiar gravitas; his presence adds authenticity and sly wit as he recounts all that can go wrong when humans trust their fate to metal tubes hurtling through turbulence. Standouts like Joe Hill’s “You Are Released” are delivered with emotional punch that lingers long after landing. Each narrator brings nuance – some stories are read with dry humor that chills more than any supernatural twist; others drip with dread so palpable you’ll find your knuckles whitening along with your headphones.

What makes this anthology soar above other horror collections is its breadth: there’s classic fright from legends like Ray Bradbury and Roald Dahl alongside modern anxiety-inducing tales by John Varley and Dan Simmons. Even seasoned fans will discover new favorites – and perhaps new authors to explore further (as I did). The production quality is top notch: ambient effects never overpower but subtly enhance suspenseful moments without distracting from narrative flow.

If there’s any mild turbulence here for listeners unfamiliar with multi-narrator productions – it’s simply adjusting between voices at first – but quickly becomes one of Flight or Fright’s best features. The diversity keeps things lively across seventeen stories plus a bonus poem – a rare treat in anthologies of any genre.

Ultimately, whether you’re an anxious flyer or just love heart-pounding horror far removed from everyday life (or both!), Flight or Fright delivers thrills worth revisiting again and again.
