Description

The mysteries of our universe and a terrifying sense of the unknown are laid bare in this anthology of weird fiction. Featuring stories from Edith Nesbit, Algernon Blackwood, Robert Louis Stevenson and more, Classic Weird Stories celebrates the unsettling and the unexplainable side of life.

Vividly imagined and richly described, each of these tales is a journey beyond normality. Danger lurks everywhere, and pounces at the drop of a hat in Lafcadio Hearn’s ‘Mujina’, a Japanese folk tale in which a man’s lonely night-time walk turns into a nightmare. Charlotte Riddell describes the unbridled power of evil in ‘Sandy the Tinker’, as a man is forced to make a life-or-death choice. Twisted minds conduct experiments on themselves and others in Edith Nesbit and Robert Louis Stevenson’s fiction, while other bizarre, paranormal experiences have onlookers struggling to believe what their instincts tell them. In Ambrose Bierce’s ‘The Damned Thing’, a sceptical jury stand around the corpse of a man who died in suspicious circumstances. For the terrified witness, words fail to convey exactly what he saw . . .

Part of the Macmillan Collector’s Library, a series of stunning pocket-sized classics. These beautiful books make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. This edition is compiled and introduced by Dr Emily Alder.
