Background Information
Charnel Houses was released under the Black Dog line due to the controversal subject matter and extremely graphic and frank way in which it is handled.

The book is thoroughly researched, and deals mostly in fact. When anything supernatual is discussed, it is done so in an aside or in a specially marked section away from the factual material.

Janet Berliner, who wrote the book's introduction, is an author and journalist from South Africa whose family were German Jews who fled Nazi Germany in 1936. She is a friend of Richard Dansky. For more information on her, please check her website.

According to notes at the beginning, the information in Charnel Houses superceeds anything in Berlin By Night.

Memorable Quotes
"This book is dedicated to the survivors of the Holocaust, who have spent 50 years telling their stories. What you hold in your hands is a tribute to their perseverance, and in some small way an attempt to carry on their legacy for the sake of the generations who will never know them.  Todah raba." -- The Dedication
