With Jordan Peele's Twilight Zone reboot arriving, read the stories that inspired some of the show's greatest episodes, including "The Howling Man"

The profoundly original and wildly entertaining short stories of a legendary Twilight Zone writer, with a foreword by Ray Bradbury and an afterword by William Shatner

It is only natural that Charles Beaumont would make a name for himself crafting scripts for The Twilight Zone--for his was an imagination so limitless it must have emerged from some other dimension. Perchance to Dream contains a selection of Beaumont's finest stories, including seven that he later adapted for Twilight Zone episodes.

Beaumont dreamed up fantasies so vast and varied they burst through the walls of whatever box might contain them. Supernatural, horror, noir, science fiction, fantasy, pulp, and more: all were equally at home in his wondrous mind. These are stories where lions stalk the plains, classic cars rove the streets, and spacecraft hover just overhead. Here roam musicians, magicians, vampires, monsters, toreros, extraterrestrials, androids, and perhaps even the Devil himself. With dizzying feats of master storytelling and joyously eccentric humor, Beaumont transformed his nightmares and reveries into impeccably crafted stories that leave themselves indelibly stamped upon the walls of the mind. In Beaumont's hands, nothing is impossible: it all seems plausible, even likely.

" Beaumont's] imagination, as Perchance to Dream amply shows, was more than most writers enjoy in the longest of lifetimes." -NPR

THIS WATER HAS JUST A SMALL AMOUNT OF FLAVOR. IT DOES TAKE A LITTLE GETTING USED TO BUT AFTER A BOTTLE YOU WILL LIKE IT. IF YOU DONT DRINK MUCH WATER TRY THIS YOU MIGHT LIKE IT OVER TAP WATER.

Excellent if you like flavored water but not seltzer
Flavor Name: Best Sellers Variety Pack, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
I don't like seltzer but I LOVE this stuff. Minus one star because I think it's pricey. I could drink a bunch of these each day, but I limit myself to one.

Flavored Water I Actually Crave
Flavor Name: Best Sellers Variety Pack, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 12), Flavor Name: Best Sellers Variety Pack, Size: 16 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
I didn’t expect to get hooked on a flavored water, but Hint Water Watermelon has honestly become one of my everyday essentials. I usually get bored with plain water, but this hits that perfect balance, it’s just enough flavor to keep things interesting without feeling fake or overpowering. The watermelon taste is super light and refreshing, like a subtle hint of a fresh slice rather than that overly sweet candy version you get with a lot of drinks. I’ve tried a ton of flavored waters, and this is one of the few that doesn’t leave any weird aftertaste, which is a huge win for me. I find myself reaching for it throughout the day, especially when I’m trying to stay hydrated but don’t want soda or anything sugary. It just feels clean and easy to drink. At this point, it’s kind of replaced most other drinks for me. I always make sure I have a few bottles on hand.
