Haunters at the Hearth: Eerie Tales for Christmas Nights, edited by Tanya Kirk / From the British Library's "Tales of the Weird" series / ISBN 9780712354271 / 312-page paperback

***

From the troves of the British Library collections comes a new volume for Christmas nights―when the boundary between the mundane and the unearthly is ever so thin―ushering in a new throng of revenants, demons, spectres and shades drawn to the glow of the hearth.

Included within are eighteen classic stories ranging from 1864 to 1974, with vintage Victorian chillers nestled alongside unsettling modern pieces from L. P. Hartley and Mildred Clingerman; lost tales from rare anthologies and periodicals; weird episodes from unexpected authors such as Winston Graham and D. H. Lawrence; stories simmering with a twisted humour from Elizabeth Bowen and Celia Fremlin and many more haunting seasonal treats.
