A boy named Harry imprisoned by suburban cannibal tells her three horror stories -- about a walking mummy, a supernatural cat, and a vow made to a gargoyle -- to stave off being served as a main course. Good production values. King's is based on a short story named "The Cat From Hell" which originally appeared Twist of the Tale, an horror anthology about cats.
