I have just read Bradbury's Out of the Dust Returned. In my opinion, it was the best Horror story I have ever read. The way he twisted the words into to convey exactly what he wanted to say without restraint was simply genius. I enjoyed his unique approach to the super-natural. Any other thoughts?

It is "From The Dust Returned" And it was a good book

The book was very good I like your view on the book and agree. Im reading the book for the second time. The book is a little confusing for those that just started reading it though so you should start with Fahrenheit 451 so you can get used to his terminology.

I've just read it for the first time and will read it many more times in the future. It is now my favorite. It left me dumb struck and hungry for more. It is by far the best horror story that I have ever read.

One of my first full length Bradbury reads - I've been going through his short stories. Is this really a horror story? I never thought of it that way til reading these posts.

Miss Piggy after reading your post I thought about it and I believe horror is the wrong descriptive word for this story. I looked it up and horror means: a painful emotion of fear, dread, and repulsion. So I thought about it and I decided that Occult would be a better word to describe this story...Afterall it means: mysterious, supernatural, secret, and magical. I hope that you agree with me.
