Empty House, And Other Ghost Stories

Algernon Blackwood, one of the founding fathers of modern ghost and horror stories, inspired generations of writers from H.P. Lovecraft to Shirley Jackson and our very own Ramsey Campbell. Blackwood’s ‘The Empty House’ is one of the most famous haunted house stories in the English language, with its carefully crafted gathering of tension and dread inference of terrors lurking at the end every corridor, around every corner, through every half-opened door. This edition includes ‘A Haunted Island’, ‘The Wood of the Dead’, ‘Skeleton Lake’ and several other ghoulish tales.
