Another recent volume of the Gothic Fantasy series is Haunted House
Short Stories, which offers another selection of excellent fiction. -
Kirkus
Following the great success of our Gothic Fantasy deluxe edition short
story compilations, Supernatural Horror, Murder Mayhem, Lost Souls
and many others, this latest title takes housebound trapped spirits and
creepy gothic mansions as its chilling subject. Contains a potent mix of
classic and brand new writing, with authors from the US, Canada, and the
UK. Oh, what is that sound within the walls? The creaking floorboards,
the children hiding in the mirror, the spirits that rake across the
flesh of the mind - all find a home in this anthology of spine-tingling
tales.
