A stage adaptation of short stories by award-winning fantasist Harlan Ellison (including "Shatterday" and "Paladin of the Lost Hour") written by playwright Robert Armin. Welcome to Harlan Ellison's MORTAL DREADS: six extraordinary tales that tear through the fabric of space and time and reveal the gaping hole which opens onto Some Other Place... If you find these dark dreams troubling, maybe it's because they're your dreams A weary traveler on the Pacific Coast Highway seeks shelter from a torrential rain and discovers a bizarre little bookshop where even the most casual browser can find exactly what he or she is looking for. A young man's late night hot dog run is interrupted by a stranger's tragically comic discourse on love and loss. While attending a literary cocktail party, a writer grudgingly strikes up a conversation with a charming old man who may have an unexpected impact on his life. A public relations hack is forced to confront his own shabby existence in a life-altering telephone conversation with himself. A bookstore saleswoman is confronted by an angry and pugnacious writer who demands justice for the woebegone victims of the New York Literary Establishment. A Vietnam vet rescues an old man from a mugging and discovers the secret of a most unusual pocket watch.
