Read Now Download Now ⏭ listen AudioBook
Description:The accent of this collection of horror stories is on quality and rarity, and the twenty-two pieces more than fulfill both requirements. The book starts where most anthologies end. It is one of the most outstanding collections of its kind available today.The torso in the bed ... the thing in the chimney ... the beast from the sea and the burial alive ... the cloven hoof-print and the midnight caller ... the skull in the basket and the ghost in the rain ... the lurking terror in the madhouse ... the wizard's ghost and the gouged-out eyes — these are some of the terrifying tales in the anthology.Ghost story enthusiasts will be delighted to see a story by M.R. James making its first appearance in book form for over forty years. There are also stories from famous writers, like H.R. Wakefield and Charles Birkin, tales from neglected authors such as E.H. Visiak, A.C. Benson and Frederick Cowles, new unpublished chillers from L.T.C. Rolt, Joy Burnett and A. Erskine Ellis, and unexpected terrors from H. Rider Haggard and Valery Bryusov.CONTENTS:• Introduction (The Thrill of Horror) • by Hugh Lamb• Only a Dream • (1905) • by H. Rider Haggard• The Meerschaum Pipe • (1934) • by L.A.
