In this volume, stories are written by John Arcudi and Mike Mignola, and Guy Davis is the only artist involved. There is a one page introduction written by Scott Allie dated 2012, and a one page afterword written by Mike Mignola.
This fourth volume collects the following stories, with their respective virgin cover:

• The Warning
• The Black Godess
• King of Fear

Note that each volume are edited in books using covers of the previous paperbacks.

This volume ends with a comprehensive art section (52 pages) divided by story and commented  (I don't own the respective paperbacks but these sketches probably originates from them, therefore I don't thing this edition presents exclusive material). Note that at the very end there is a second afterword by Guy Davis related to his entire run on the series.
