cover art by Les Edwards

From R. Chetwynd-Hayes and Stephen Jones, editors of the famed Fontana Book of Great Ghost Stories and the award-winning Mammoth Book of Best New Horror, comes a superlative selection of twenty-five classic stories of the supernatural by such renowned authors as E. Nesbit, F. Marion Crawford, Guy de Maupassant, Ambrose Bierce, Washington Irving, S. Baring-Gould, Sir Walter Scott, Daniel Defoe, Jerome K. Jerome and J. Sheridan Le Fanu.

Also featuring modern tales of unease by such contemporary authors as Stephen King ("The Reaper's Image"), Brian Lumley, Ramsey Campbell, Steve Rasnic Tem, Garry Kilworth, Tony Richards, Sydney J. Bounds, Tina Rath and R. Chetwynd-Hayes himself, this volume is guaranteed to raise a shiver of dread along the spine of any reader on a cold, wintry night... May you never hear invisible footsteps following you down the stairs. Happy shuddering!
