He Is Legend.
I LOVE his work. The Legend of Hell House is one of the most scarist things I ever read.
He wrote the INCREDIBLE SHRINKING MAN,a classic!
His credits are phenomonal!
A sad day for fantasy fans.  Bluesad

Rule of 3 strikes again - James Gandolfini, Vince Flynn and now Matheson.
I love his work; Duel, I Am Legend, Stir of Echoes, Hell House - he was terrific at concocting really intelligent horror stories.  RIP

     Matheson wrote the scariest short story I've ever read...."Graveyard Shift".

If it's true what they say, that GOD created us in His image, then why should we not love creating, and why should we not continue to do so, as carefully and ethically as we can, on whatever scale we're capable of?

     The choice is simple; refuse to create, and refuse to grow, or build, with care and love.

He also wrote Somewhere in Time and What Dreams May Come, both fantastic novels.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
