Not everything that goes bump in the night brings gifts ...
As the nights draw in, the veil between worlds thins, and all sorts of ghosts and ghouls come tumbling in. In the shadows, under the bed, in wind-whipped snowy landscapes and in rooms lit by guttering candles, the dead of winter are waiting for us ... and their hearts are cold as ice.
From the mysterious occupant of an ancient tomb to the Christmas visitor who is troubled by violent dreams, these are ten ghost stories from the masters of the genre that will chill your blood and haunt your dreams through the darkest months of the year.
With stories from Lennox Robinson, M. Burrage, Ruth Rendell, E.F. Benson, Arthur Conan Doyle, H. Russell Wakefield, M.R. James, Margaret Irwin, Algernon Blackwood and W.W. Jacobs
Featuring authors such as Arthur Conan Doyle, M. R. James, Ruth Rendell, E. F. Benson, W.W. Jacobs and more, selected by Cecily Gayford.
Cecily Gayford studied English at the University of Oxford, where she immersed herself obsessively in the gothic, morbid and mysterious side of literature. Now a Publishing Director, she has worked at Profile Books for eleven years. A life-long scaredy-cat, she once saw a ghost in a hotel room.
