pickAs an editor, Singer kinda phoned this in, as the stories were all first published in 3 or 4 editions of Weird Tales magazine, so I assume he'd picked those up second hand and selected a few out of each. However, the stories he picked included some excellent ones, so that's to his credit.
Bradbury needs no help from me 🌟
Bloch's werewolf tale is interesting, with a misogynistic MC I assume we're not supposed to like (I didn't, anyway), if ⬇️
pickAnother Ray Bradbury, this one a 1945 offering called "The Dead Man".
Odd Martin mainly sits quietly on an old tar barrel on the main street of a little Mid-West town. When he does speak, he says he's dead, and although he kinda smells like it, the townsfolk consider him to just be, well, odd! If they knew they were in a Ray Bradbury story, they might well reconsider their opinion ??♂️
pickCarroll John Daly's "Outside of Time" is ok, more suggestive of possibilities than delivering on promise, with its narrator telling of immortal beings and their power over the flow of time.
Margaret St. Clair's "The Family" is shorter and more suggestive, but also more effective. A family of vampires gathers for dinner before their annual sacrificial offering and blood feast. Things both do and don't go to plan!
pickAh, Ray Bradbury! ??♂️? "The Watchers", 1945.
If the powers of Good and Evil are omniscient, how might They know all that we do? Bill Tinsley thinks he's figured out how universal surveillance is achieved, but who will believe him, and to what lengths might the Watchers go to preserve their secret? ?????
Well, that's a cover image to conjure with!
I've had this 1968 edition since about 1980, my copy being rather more battered than the one pictured, and about time I read it, I guess.
Mostly written in the '40s, with a couple from the '50s, and some reliable authors, starting with the magnificent Ray Bradbury, and including Robert Bloch and August Derleth, so should be some good chills! 🥶💀🥶

“The Smiling Face“ by Helen W. Kasson has another unlikable misogynistic racist MC, interesting feature being the Matto Grosso, Lost City of Z element.
“Skydrift“ by Emil Petaja was earthbound with its ex-con drifter protagonists, but with a neat eldritch cosmic vibe.
August Derleth's “The Lost Day“ ticked a few boxes for me: set during the London Blitz, the fabulously named Jasper Camberveitch frequents ⬇️ (edited) 3w
“Ship-in-a-Bottle“ by P. Schuyler Miller has another strange backstreet shop, this one selling unusual nautical curiosities: nice weird atmosphere.
