Does this anthology contain stories that are difficult to find elsewhere?

Several pieces included in this collection, such as the short story Clay by George A. Romero, are notable for being rare or not widely available in other anthologies or author collections.

While Clay is a prose narrative rather than a screenplay, it shares thematic sensibilities with his 1977 film Martin, focusing on grounded, unsettling character studies rather than the zombie tropes found in his more famous cinematic projects.
