The Victorian and Edwardian periods were a heyday for ghost stories and other tales of the macabre. This was the time of the Penny Dreadful, of Dickens, M. R. James and Stoker. It was a time when science and spiritualism were intertwined, and the existence of supernatural forces was taken for granted. For those who enjoy a spine-chilling read, this was one of the most prolific periods in history.
Things That Wait in the Dark brings you 20 vintage tales from that golden age. Tales of horrors both natural and supernatural. This brand new collection was compiled from the archives of the late Hugh Lamb, one of the world’s leading anthologists of vintage horror, and from discoveries made by his son, Richard. You’ll find a host of lesser known stories as well as some not seen in an anthology since their original publication.
Things That Wait in the Dark is a treat for those who love to peer into the darkness of antiquity and see what might be peering back. So, delve, if you dare, into this unique age of ghosts, monsters, murder and gaslit chills.”
