Short Ghost and Horror Collection 066

Nineteen tales of dread from an era when writers understood that the imagination's deepest terrors need no explanation. This collection gathers ghouls and ghosts, beasts that stalk the moors at night, and things that go bump in the creaking corridors of old houses. Some stories whisper from the grave. Others howl. A few, dangerously, glow with a strange and wondering beauty. The authors vary from the famous to the obscure, but all share a common gift: the ability to make you check over your shoulder after the lights dim. These are not modern horror's blood-soaked excesses but something subtler and often more unsettling - the slow chill, the wrongness you can't name, the certainty that something is there in the darkness even when you can't see it. Perfect for readers who want their frights served old-school, with atmosphere to spare.
