- There is no indication on the publication that it is the second in the series. The title given here is to differentiate it from the first publication and is taken from the publisher's website.
- Eleven booklets, each containing a single story, housed in a handmade box featuring a matte-black finish, an iridescent colour-shifting foil stamp on top, and a magnetized lid. A black satin ribbon is attached to the box for easy removal its contents.
- The booklets have debossed design details. Ten of them are bound with brass staples, and the other one ("Uncle Tuggs") is perfect-bound. Each booklet has its own cover illustration. The pages of each booklet are not numbered.
- The editor's introduction is printed on the front of a single laid-in card, with a postscript memorial to Harlan Ellison on the back. An uncredited poem ("from the HANDBOOK FOR THE RECENTLY DECEASED") is printed on a card adhered to the bottom of the box.
- "Edited by Patton Oswalt" and "Design by Natalie Olsen" stated on the top interior lid of the box.
- "Made in Canada" (over) "2018" printed on the bottom of the box.
