Horror Stories is the debut album released by garage punk band Dwarves. It was released in June 1986 on the Voxx label in the US,[2] and was stylistically similar to their earlier Sonics/Frank Zappa-inspired output under the name The Suburban Nightmare.[1][3]

The album was issued on compact disc in the UK in 1990, and again in 1992.[2]
