With the success of the movie blockbuster I Am Legend, Richard Matheson is being discovered by a new generation of horror fans. Here is the classic tale that was a landmark episode of The Twilight Zone.
Much of Richard Matheson's work has found its way into pop culture: the title story became a memorable episode of television's The Twilight Zone, and more recently Will Smith starred in the blockbuster movie I Am Legend. Stephen King has declared that Matheson is one of his favorite writers. Find out why in this classic horror story of a man who peers out of his airplane window to see a gremlin destroying the wing of the plane.
"The well-known title tale about a nervous air traveler is a showcase for the author's trademark less-is-more prose style, which suspensefully delineates a psychological tug-of-war between man and a monster that may be purely imagined. Timeless in their simplicity, [Matheson's] stories are also relentless in their approach to basic fears."
