Christian Coulson Narrates Exclusive Excerpt From Stephen King and Bev Vincent-Edited Anthology Audiobook

Yesterday saw the release of Flight or Fright, a new audiobook anthology that was edited by legendary horror author Stephen King as well as Bev Vincent, whose King companion pieces have been nominated for the Bram Stoker Award as well as the Edgar award. The anthology focuses on all the things that could possibly go wrong when you’re in a plane flying several miles above the ground, a personal nightmare for me!

Each story in the anthology is read by different authors. There’s Simon Jones, who reads Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s The Horror of the Heights. You’ll also hear Corey Stoll take on Joe Hill’s You Are Released. What’s exciting is that there’s also a brand new Stephen King story, which is narrated by the author himself!

Today, we’ve got a short video clip of Christian Coulson narrating Roald Dahl’s They Shall Not Grow Old, which you can watch above.

Welcome to Flight or Fright, an anthology about all the things that can go horribly wrong when you’re suspended six miles in the air, hurtling through space at more than 500 mph and sealed up in a metal tube (like—gulp!—a coffin) with hundreds of strangers. All the ways your trip into the friendly skies can turn into a nightmare, including some we’ll bet you’ve never thought of before… but now you will the next time you walk down the jetway and place your fate in the hands of a total stranger.

If you want to order a copy, you can do so through Simon & Schuster.
